72 Stories: From the Baseball Collection of Geddy Lee by Geddy Lee
Rush frontman Geddy Lee is a baseball fan and became hooked on memorabilia collection. In this book he tells 72 baseball stories related to his collection. He also includes a bit of his history and some history of collectors in general. He got the collectors bug and would often be involved in bidding in auctions while on tour with his band. He has bought a few items that are not as authentic as he liked. He also made a donation of many items to the Negro League museum. The stories bring alive many baseball players from the distant past as well as those of today. He does rely heavily on other sources for details, but has them spiced up with his personal experiences. Even though I am not into baseball, I found it to be a great book.
