Effectively Wild Episode 2427: Holo Victory

This book is a fully revised and updated edition of Bill James's original 'Historical Baseball Abstract,' published in 1985. It provides a century's worth of American baseball history, told one decade at a time, with detailed facts and figures about how, where, and by whom the game was played. The book includes listings of the top 100 players at each position, using James's 'Win Shares' method to quantify individual performance. It also features a reference section with Win Shares for each season and player, as well as team comparisons. This work is essential for both baseball fans and historians.
