Reviews
[an] interesting saga of Ott's Life....More than a reference book on an unlikely, stunning career that today's youngsters may be unaware of, Martin's admiration fills The Gentle Giant-and it seems everyone else in the game held Ott in the same high regardddd, If you are a lover of baseball, you will enjoy all the batting statistics. But even if you care not about the game, you will enjoy the story.

The book is in perfect condition, brand new, and is exactly as described. This item is difficult to find here, and the seller priced it very reasonably. It shipped from the UK to Canada, and unfortunately took a little longer to arrive than the seller hoped, but it was shipped less than 24 hours after I purchased. When I contacted the seller, they were very responsive and helpful. I would not hesitate to purchase from this seller again. Definitely recommend!
