From 1949 until 1990, Dorothy Jane Mills quietly contributed her
research and writing to the first baseball histories ever written
by a historian. The wife of historian Harold Seymour, she found
herself increasingly involved with his books, as the couple
presided over mountains of records on the game and worked to
prepare his imposing manuscripts for press. But she received no
official credit. It was after Dr. Seymours passing that other
researchers learned she was the unattributed co-author of much of
his work.
. This important memoir reveals details of the authors
partnership with baseballs most revered historian. Many new facts
regarding Mills role come to light. Mills, now recognized as the
games first woman historian, also explains how her work as a
teacher, editor, novelist, childrens author, and public speaker fit
into her baseball work. The book contains numerous photographs from
the authors personal collection, most of them in print for the
first time as well as a foreword by Steve Gietschier of The
Sporting News.
