The famed Boys of Summer -- a.k.a. the Brooklyn Dodgers -- were some of baseball's best and funniest players. The group included Hall of Famers Duke Snider, Roy Campanella, Gil Hodges, Pee Wee Reese, and Jackie Robinson, the game's first black player. For the first time, Carl Erskine, another member of that legendary team, relates memories about his Dodger days in this book of anecdotes. The result is a delightfully interesting trip through the world of 1950s baseball. Among Erskine's tales are his dealings with the immortal Branch Rickey, his view from the Dodger bench of Don Larsen's perfect game, and his firsthand experiences when Jackie Robinson broke the color barrier.

If you are old enough to be a one time Brooklyn Dodger fan, then you will love this book. I was born in Brooklyn and grew up with Brooklyn Dodgers and this book brings back the memories of my childhood. Highly recommend. Erskine's little stories are humorous and entertaining. A joy to read and some nice pictures from the days of De' Bums.
