If you are a diehard Red Sox baseball
fan, then Faithful: Two Diehard Boston Red Sox Fans
Chronicle the Historic 2004 Season is a must read for
you. Written by horror author Stephen King and Stewart O'Nan, this book not
only recaps the amazing 2004 season, but also covers the history of the club
"cursed" by the sale of Babe Ruth to the New York Yankees after the 1918 season.
You should also look at
The Rivals: The Boston Red
Sox vs The New York Yankees - An Inside History. A collaboration between reporters from The New York Times and The Boston Globe, this book analyzes
the sport's greatest rivalry, and highlights such key events as the
Williams-DiMaggio rivalry; Bucky Dent's homerun in 1978 and the Aaron Boone's
homerun in 2003, which ended the Sox playoff hopes. This is a great way to
prepare for the upcoming baseball season!
