"Well-researched and surprisingly well-written by rookie writers-a (high school baseball) coach and his equally well-informed and opinionated buddy-this lively discourse combines conviction with fact to strongly state the cases for and against the myriad candidates who are put up for election to the Hall of Fame. Full of frequently, infrequently and hardly-ever mounted arguments for and against the candidacy of every retired star player, A Fan's Eye View of the Baseball Hall of Fame will appeal to baseball fanatics, and the keepers of the Hall of Fame itself, urging us passionately to define just what the Hall of Fame should stand as, Museum or Shrine. More than a few of your all-time favorite stars may not shine as brightly as they have after you read for the cycle here." -Dan Weaver, past winner of the distinguished Society of Professional Journalists, Top Sportswriter in the State (Washington) award "The well researched and reasoned manuscript questions the induction of many players whose merits don't compare with other Hall of Famers, and indicts the selection process that begs for reform." -Mike Vlahovich, Sports Correspondent, Spokesman Review
