O'NAN, Stewart and KING, Stephen
(NY), Scribner, (2004). The two writers' account of the Boston Red Sox championship season of 2004.

As VIP fans, the two had more access to the players than usual, and their account is lively and engaging; that the Sox broke an 86 year-long "curse" to win the World Series that year couldn't have been better scripted. Signed by O'Nan. Fine in a fine dust jacket.
