Ted Williams: A Baseball Life

If I were going to collect baseball biographies, Ted Williams would be at the top of the list -- the "Splendid Splinter" makes most other athletes look stupid with his Hall of Fame career numbers and his five years serving his country as a fighter pilot in WW2 and Korea.

However, I'm not sure that I do want to collect baseball biographies, so this title is on the trading block...
