Providing a behind-the-scenes look at the personalities and events
that have shaped the Detroit Tigers' recent resurgence, readers
will meet the players, coaches, and management and share in their
moments of greatness, grief, and quirkiness. Beginning in 2002,
when author Mario Impemba arrived in the Tigers' broadcast booth
and when the team had consecutive 100-loss seasons, the book
details how, in just three shorts years, team president Dave
Dombrowski and manager Jim Leyland led the Tigers to the American
League pennant--a feat the Tigers repeated in 2012. Impemba takes
readers into the Comerica Park broadcast booth alongside the
legendary Ernie Harwell, onto the team plane during the team's two
runs to the World Series, and into the clubhouse as Miguel Cabrera
closed in on the 2012 Triple Crown. He shares personal stories
about several Tigers stars, including Cabrera, Justin Verlander,
Prince Fielder, Curtis Granderson, Ivan Rodriguez, Kenny Rogers,
Magglio Ordonez, and more. "If These Walls Could Talk: Detroit
Tigers" gives fans a taste of what it's like to be a part of the
Tigers storied history from a perspective unlike any other.
