"In the annals of baseball, nobody has been more creative, charismatic, and controversial than Bill Veeck. He was born into baseball: His sportswriter father became president of the Chicago Cubs when Bill was four. America's pastime became his lifelong passion, and he would change the business and conscience of the sport, leaving his mark on it as few ever have."--Page 4 of cover.
