Reviews
"Gruver writes a well-researched narrative of the 1972 season and makes a strong case for its significance in baseball history."--Brian E. Campbell, Middle West Review, " Hairs vs. Squares is about the heart of the game at one of its more adrenalized moments."--Ron Slate, On the Seawall, "'This wasn't a World Series,' Reds star Johnny Bench recalled in his autobiography. It was a war between the Old and New Orders, with the players in between. This mash-up of the Mustache Gang and Big Red Machine, the Hairs and the Squares, the avant-garde and the conservative mainstream, struck some as surreal. The collision of cultures symbolized the seventies. To paraphrase outlaw journalist Hunter S. Thompson, who was on the presidential campaign trail in '72, there was fear and loathing at the Fall Classic."--excerpt from Hairs vs. Squares  , "Gruver's Hairs vs. Squares reminds us how intense the '72 games were--especially the postseason play." Sport Literature Association, "Gruver sketches some nice profiles of players who were key figures during the 1972 season--and not just those who figured into the pennant races. Stories about Nolan Ryan, Steve Carlton, Rod Carew and others give the reader a more rounded portrait of the season."--Bob D'Angelo, The Sports Bookie

Seller was patient and responsive to my questions about the item, it arrived promptly, and is as was described. It was a more complicated purchase than most because it involved not only a software CD, but also an update sent via a Dropbox download. It all worked out fine. Thanks!
