#1 NEW YORK TIMES BESTSELLER

 

“George Will on baseball. Perfect….A book of surpassing enthusiasm and intelligence.”

—Los Angeles Times

 

Now with a new introduction, George F. Will’s classic bestseller, Men at Work, is back. The renowned author, political pundit, and diehard sports enthusiast discourses on the Great American Pastime in a work that stands with The Boys of Summer, Summer of ’49, All My Octobers, and The Glory of Their Times as one of the finest baseball books ever written. The New York Times Book Review calls it, “an excellent book about excellence,” while the St. Louis Post-Dispatch promises that, “anyone who truly loves the game…will find Men At Work thoroughly rewarding.” No doubt about it, George F. Will has hit a grand slam home run!
