From the Dust Jacket: "In 1921, George Daniel 'Buck' Weaver, the Ginger Kid, was banned for life from baseball. THE GINGER KID provides historians and baseball fans with the entire story of the life of Buck Weaver, from his first appearance on the ball fields of Pottstown, Pennsylvania, through his rapid though erratic rise to the major leagues, the Black Sox scandal and trial, his ouster from the game he loved so much, and his unrelenting efforts, up to the day he died, to clear his name. Was Weaver's fate unjust? Herein lie the facts of the case." . First Printing of the First Edition. Hardcover. As New condition/As New dust jacket. 8vo. xvii, 337pp.
