"This study of major league managers through the history of baseball since the formation of the National League applies a sabermetric approach to gauging the performance and tendencies of such men as Connie Mack, John McGraw, Tommy Lasorda and scores of others. Rather than focusing on in-game tactical decisions, it also analyzes broader, off-field management issues"--Provided by publisher.
