In the fall of 1908, no one could have guessed that the Chicago
Cubs, a team that had dominated the National league three straight
years, would for a century be shut out in its efforts to reclaim
the world championship. Stars like Frank Chance, Johnny Evers, Ed
Reulbach, and Three Finger Brown were still in their primes, and
they had just emerged the winner in the most remarkable pennant
race in major league history.In the decades since, the achievement
of the 1908 Cubs has been overshadowed first by the events of the
season, which included the Merkle Game and a playoff that pitted
two all-time great pitchers against each other, and more recently
by the calendar, as the centennial anniversary of the last Cubs
championship closed in. This engaging book rescues the 1908 team
from its status as footnote to baseball history, following one of
the all-time great clubs on a thrilling, season-long march toward
the World Series.
