The Tigers of '68 is the uproarious, stirring tale of this team--a group of hell-raisers who brawled on the field and partied hard afterward. This book revisits the main performers of this illustrious team and weaves their stories into a cohesive narrative that captures all the drama and color of Detroit's 1968 season Hailed as a "sparkling saga" by LibraryJournal, Cantor's account relives a championship before the days of runaway salaries, divisional championships, drug suspensions, and designated hitters.
