The Chicago Cubs encyclopedia

"For the last half century, since 1945 when they won their last pennant, the Chicago Cubs have often been characterized as "lovable losers." The Cubs set a record for consecutive second division finishes, 20. The Cubs have won 16 pennants, set the one-season major league record for victories, 116 in 1906, and are the only charter member of the National League to play in the same city, 121 years without interruption." "The Chicago Cubs Encyclopedia offers readers: over 500 photographs, including 16 pages in full color; complete statistics through the 1996 season on hitting streaks, ERA's, box scores, and trades; an all-time roster of managers, players, and position leaders; season-by-season descriptions; game highlights and great moments; 100 player profiles from Adrian Constantine Anson to Ryne Sandberg; the managerial strategies, the personalities, the honors, and the milestones; and an immense treasure trove of little known facts and surprising anecdotes."--BOOK JACKET.
