Politics of Glory Re-print?
Dunno if it was just re-printed, but I just picked up a new edition of "Politics of Glory" at Barnes and Noble titled "Whatever Happened to the Hall of Fame - Baseball, Cooperstown, and the Politics of Glory".
They also had a new edition of the New Historical Baseball Abstract with a new ending chapter for 2003. Not worth buying it again for that chapter, but it's not a bad read if you get a chance to flip through it at the bookstore. Jason

I recently picked up "Whatever Happened to the Hall of Fame" but haven't had a chance to read it yet. Greatness?
Thanks for the tip on the new chapter in the NHBA Jason. I'll have to grab that and sit down with a cuppa joe one at the local B&N of these nights...
