This was a really enjoyable book. It was a historical book, but not really historical fiction so much (there were gaps that would have been filled in by the author if it had been like the Devil in the White City, but this one was very focused on being true to the historical record). That made it a little gappy at times, but it was still fascinating. It was not just about Brown himself, but it was also an interesting look at baseball in the 1910-ish time period - and of the culture at the time as well.
