I (Quincy) invited Chris D. Davies, resident Baseball book reviewer for Covering the Corner, to read Peter Schilling’s The End of Baseball, which has long been my favorite baseball novel, so that we could discuss it together, and Chris graciously agreed.
After re-reading, I discovered some issues with it that I hadn’t remembered and it was fun to compare notes.
Quincy: It’s probably been about a decade since I’ve read the book, so one thing that I did wonder about was, if the book was written today, would Schilling have been so free with his use of the n-word?
