Hardback. Etat : Good. Advance Praise for THE 50 GREATEST RED SOX GAMES "Herea s the deal. It costs about $43 for a grandstand seat at Fenway Park these days, unless you buy the ticket from a scalper, which makes the cost $2 million. If you went to just 50 games of any dimension that means the cost would be either $2,150 or $100 million. Here, for considerably less, you get the 50 greatest games the Red Sox ever played plus tight prose, snappy anecdotes, and reasoned judgments. Bargains like this dona t come often. Plus, you dona t even have to pay for parking." ----Leigh Montville, author of Ted Williams: The Biography of an American Hero "Ita s a daunting task, but Cecilia Tan and Bill Nowlin have come up with the Red Sox greatest hits album, the box set.
