A deluxe baseball treasury unlike any other, complete with essays, photos, and player bios from The National Baseball Hall of Fame and Museum.

Everyone dreams of Cooperstown. It's a hallowed name in baseball, for players as well as their fans. It's a house where legends live; it's everything that's great about the game.

Never before has the National Baseball Hall of Fame and Museum published a complete registry of inductees with plaques, photographs, and extended biographies. In this unique, 75th anniversary edition, hear the stories of every player inducted into the Hall, organized by position. Each section begins with an original essay by a living Hall of Famer who played that position: Hank Aaron, George Brett, Orlando Cepeda, Carlton Fisk, Tommy Lasorda, Joe Morgan, Jim Rice, Cal Ripken Jr., Nolan Ryan, and Robin Yount.

PLEASE NOTE: When you purchase this title, the accompanying reference material will be available in your My Library section along with the audio.

Featured Article: The Best Baseball Audiobooks of All Time


Ask any baseball fan and they'll tell you: some of their favorite sounds can only be heard at the ballpark—the smooth, satisfying pop of a catcher’s glove as a pitch hits its mark; the crack of a bat as it tears into a fastball, explosive and hopeful, drawing the crowd to their feet. Our list, a roundup of outstanding baseball audiobooks, offers a glimmer of that same ballpark magic with just a few of the greatest stories from our national pastime.

This book doesn’t have the latest HOFers in but it is a good reference for all the past ones. Gets a little bogged down at times but I learned a lot about these players. I am going to buy the book now so I can go back and look at some of the stories.

Great book

Hearing the stories of those who have been voted into the Hall of Fame, especially those who played before and at the turn of the 20th Century and those who played in the Negro Leagues, gives the game a much grander standing. The introductions of the positions prior to the reading of the biographies in order of the year they were inducted was a nice touch although Orlando Cepeda was harder to understand. It was still nice to have the players read their own biographies.
My one complaint is that while this says it has a complete roster of inductees, it does not include executives, announcers or umpires. I was getting to the end of managers and looking forward to hearing about the umpires and the book ended. These men gave as much to the game as any player, many times much, much more in time and dedication, and they are not included in this book. One of the great things about the Hall of Fame is that is for those who belong regardless of how they got there and only by merit. There is no "Superstars Wing," "Barely Made It Wing," and "Mistaken Entry Wing." They are all Hall of Famers. Not including the executive, announcers and umpires who are members of the Hall of Fame is quite disrespectful to the job they did.
