This being the holiday season and me having books to sell, I figure why not combine both sentiments? I have included links below to click on to order from Amazon, but feel free to break out on your own and buy it from Barnes & Noble or your local book shop, like my favorite new place, Postmark Books in Rosendale.
My latest book is about everyone’s favorite insufferable Mets team, the ’86 world champs. It’s called One-Year Dynasty: Inside the Rise and Fall of the 1986 Mets, Baseball’s Impossible One-and-Done Champions. I also updated a couple of old stand-bys, 100 Things Mets Fans Should Know and Do Before They Die and Mets by the Numbers (which I co-authored with Jon Springer). I also updated Cubs and Red Sox books with my co-authors in the By the Numbers series. So I did books on three teams this year and all of them made the postseason. One even beat a 108-year curse and ended the San Francisco even-year, Ho-Jo-like domination thingee. Not too shabby.

Thanks for listening and no matter what gifts you choose, have a Metty Christmas and Happy Harvey Year!
