Book Description
Jerrold Casway's fascinating biography of legendary baseball player Ed Delahanty (1867-1903) offers a compelling examination of the first "King of Swatsville's" life and career, including the enigma surrounding his tragic and untimely death. Through Delahanty's story, Casway traces the evolving character of major league baseball and its effect on the lives and ambitions of its athletes.
Delahanty's career spanned the last decades of the nineteenth century during a time when the sons of post-famine Irish refugees dominated the sport and changed the playing style of America's national pastime. In this "Emerald Age" of baseball, Irish-American players comprised from 30 to 50 percent of all players, managers, and team captains. Baseball for Delahanty and other young Irishmen was a ticket out of poverty and into a life of fame and fortune. The allure and promise of celebrity and wealth, however, were disastrous for Delahanty. He found himself enmeshed in desperate contract dealings and a gambling addiction that drove him to alcohol abuse. The owner of the fourth highest lifetime batting average, Delahanty mysteriously disappeared and was found at the bottom of Niagara's Horseshoe Falls.
This rich biography, which relies on previously unavailable family papers and court transcripts, as well as the colorful sports reporting of the period, will appeal to anyone interested in baseball, sports, or Irish history.

Ed Delahanty in the Emerald Age of Baseball.......2006-09-18
This is a well written book on the life of Ed Delehanty and the Delahanty family. It is thoroughly researched. I could not put this book down once I started reading it.
Review- "Ed Delahanty in the Emerald Age of Baseball" by Jerrold Casway.......2005-08-31
I just finished reading Jerrold Casway's epic work which focuses on the life, times and career of "contract-jumper" Ed Delahanty, little-known (at least to me, up until I read this book) Hall of Fame baseball player who starred in the late 1800s- early 1900s.
This book is painstakingly and meticulously researched (45 pages of footnotes alone, no less!)-- and the enormity of this undertaking by a highly skilled author is readily apparent with every turn of the page. Anyone who appreciates and enjoys the game of baseball (formerly called "Base Ball" as so documented in the book) should find this to be a VERY insightful read-- not only about the EVOLUTION of our National pastime (artfully related IN CONTEXT with key news, events, and "snapshots" of the surrounding world outside-- i.e. Presidents, wars, strife, natural disasters, etc. at any given time along the continuum in which the story is being told)-- but also about the life, times, mighty feats, travails and the ultimate demise of a skilled but wanton, highly intemperate (off the field) slugger.
To this reader, it became apparent while reading this masterpiece is that a great many parallels can be drawn from a MANAGEMENT/PLAYER relations standpoint between today's game and that of yesteryear. In other words-- "the more things change, the more they stay the same". I have now learned that adversarial relationships have always existed between these parties. This is not at all unique to today. Skilled ballplayers sought the highest bidder for their services then, as now. Ed Delahanty, though, was the ultimate "contract-jumper". He'd strike a new deal while the ink was still drying on another one that he had just signed. Being mindful of the limited window of opportunity that he had (before his playing skills would deteriorate), he played this card for all it was worth-- or not.
The game was in a rather constant state of "flux" during Delahanty's time-- what with new "upstart" leagues raiding the incumbent leagues for key talent. Legal decisions and eventual reversals of those decisions abounded. Signed contracts would ultimately be voided by the courts. The emotional turmoil of being "caught in the middle" of this tug of war.. A "pickle" of his own making.. Whilst feeling the "crunch" of legal obligation to several teams at once-- was a source of great distress to Delahanty... and helped lead to his eventual demise... His liquor problems notwithstanding.
But there is much, much more to the story. I simply suggest that you just pick up this book and read it. You will not be disappointed. Another aspect that I thoroughly enjoyed was the manner in which the author "works in" various "snippets" of columns written by the sportswriters of that era-- offering their "take" on the various baseball news items-- and there are many-- that came up. This book is extremely well-documented.
One caveat- unless you are a Evelyn Wood grad, you will find it very difficult to "speed-read" through. That is because a great many paragraphs are jam-packed with facts and detail. This book is also written for the intelligentsia amongst the baseball/Irish history buff contingent. In other words, this is a college-level book. If your reading level is 6th-grade, for example, you may not be able to keep up. On the other hand, this book is VERY intellectually stimulating to those of us that truly appreciate MASTERFUL application of the English language-- a very COLORFUL and ARTFUL one, at that. So, grab your favorite beverage, curl up on the couch and enjoy this fine work.
I rate this book FIVE AND A HALF-STARS OUT OF A POSSIBLE FOUR!

Emerald age, my eye !.......2005-07-27
While this biography of a fine, mysterious player is adequate, Casway's assertion that 19th Century baseball was an "Emerald Age," due to Irish dominance is ludicrous. Almost all the top ball players were of English ancestry at the time, which reflected the U.S. immigrant population. With the exclusion of Negroes, Latins etc. Irish did stand out as a "colorful" minority.
A Slugger and His Flaws.......2004-12-10
This is one of the best baseball biographies I have read. Unlike some that mainly take you on a timeline from one noteworthy game (with dutiful descriptions of achievements or failures) to the next, Casway does an excellent job of going behind the player to reveal the person, flaws and all. It is fascinating to see the 1890s version of the immature superstar with only one marketable skill (crushing a baseball) as he tries to cope with personal and family problems as that skill rapidly deteriorates. You know the outcome, but it is still a great read. I found the descriptions of the Phillies management very interesting, and learned a few new things about John McGraw. Clearly a lot of careful research went into this book. If you enjoy baseball biographies, you'll like this one.
Then let us sit and tell sad tales of the death of kings...........2004-09-01
We all know of players like Cy Young and Ty Cobb, but for most of the baseball world, the late 1890's and Early 19th century is a forgotten period of baseball. Even Larry Anderson, one of the Philadelphia Phillies broadcasters, was unaware of how teh late Phils slugger Ed Delahanty died. (I'm not telling you, you'll find out easy enough, anyway.) He only found out recently during a blow out game, when a certain player had a chance for hitting 4 home runs in single game. A feat, which was accomplished by the Only Del.
In the 1890's, the Phillies had one of the best teams ever to be featured on a baseball diamond. None the less, they were never able to put together a champion. Most of the blame should go to the Phillies owners, who insisted on paying their players far below their worth, and the hiring of string after string of bad managers, not to mention constant inteferance with said managers by the Front Office.
Of Course, the players didn't have much say in any of these things. They could do what they did on the playing field, but a pay raise was hard to come by. In fact, many players saw their salaries go the other way during the 1890's. The reserve clause bound you to your team, and the others in the league weren't allowed to sign you. This set of circumstances led to the creation of the short lived Player's League in the early part of the 1890's and later the formation of the American League in 1901. (At least in part.)
Ed was one of the many great Irish players in baseball at the time. The Irish far outnumbered any other minority in baseball during this period. Irish Ed was one of the greatest players of his (or any other) time, and other teams repeatedly offered the Phillies rather large sums of money in exchange for Big Ed. Ed batted over .400 for a good chunk of his career, and played at every position except pitcher and catcher. He was an amazing left fielder, but kept being moved back to first base for various reasons. (Injuries to other player's, mostly.)
Ed had a love for the arts, and this is the only part of the book that is never really expanded on. Big lived a "Superstar" lifestyle without much regard for his or his families future, rather foolishly thinking that baseball could support him forever. Sadly, he only wanted to be paid what he was worth, and this led him to jump to the American League's Washington Senators in 1902. The departure of Delahanty and the core of the great Phillies team left the Phils in such a state that it took the franchise years, even decades to recover.
Big Ed didn't seem to be as loved in Washington as he was in Philadelphia. At first, maybe, but as time went on, most of the media and cranks (Rowdy bleacher fans) turned on him. During this period of time, Ed began his descent that would end in his death. He had problems with gambling and alcohol late in his life, and after losing a good chunk of cash betting on the racetrack Ed attempted to jump back to the National League for the New York Giants. It was a lucrative contract with a huge, unheard of, bonus for it's time. But it didn't work out. Ed was beset by the owners of the Phillies and Senators, and the rest of the League Owners, and eventually during the winter and spring of 1903, Ed was forced to return to the Senators.
He had already spent most of his bonus, and the two teams agreed to take the money out of Ed's salary. Ed was now being paid almost nothing for his services, and debts began to mount for him and his family.
Ed continued to have deeper and deeper problems with alcohol, depression, and gambling as the season went on, in that order. He wasn't in great shape, and his playing suffered at times. Finally, desperate, drunk, and depressed Ed decided to try to Jump again to the Giants after a few players had successfully switched leagues just recently. After a drinking binge and subsequent confrontation by his monther and teammates in Detroit, Ed boarded a train leaving them behind and heading across Canada for Buffalo, where he would switch to a train bound for New York. He never told anyone where he was heading, and even left his mother strnaded in Detroit, with no money to return to Cleveland, their familiy home.
He never arrived in New York. It is a sad tale, but a tale worth reading. Casway has written a fine book, one of the most detailed books about baseball ever written. The Life and Times of Ed Delahanty will come to life in this book. It truely was the Emerald Age of baseball, and it should not ever be forgotten again. If you think for a moment that my desciption of this book in any way gives you the jist of the story, you are sadly mistaken. No review could come close to ever doing this magnificent book justice. If you like baseball, or just sad tales of the death of Kings, this book is a must read

Le Petit Powerhouse.......2007-01-10
Le Petit Larousse is like a miniFrench version of a cross between Webster's Dictionary and the Encyclpedia Britannica. The first side is a French dictionary with thousands of entries. The second half is an encyclopedia with thousands of articles on history, geography, biology, etc. Both sides have great diagrams and illustrations. It is a great tool for anyone wanting to learn and use the French language. One will find this book sitting in on the shelves of many French homes.
Petit Larousse.......2007-01-03
I received the dictionary promptly and it has been very helpful in my French studies.
Le Petit Larousse, Illustré.......2006-11-10
I am not fluent in French, so I beg your pardon but will conduct this review in English. This is a marvelous learning tool. It is remarkably well designed and incredibly informative. As a student of the French Language, it has been extremely helpful with my understanding of the French Culture, the French Language, and many of France's most important persons. This Book is both Dictionary and Encyclopedia. There is also a section regarding famous Latin phrases and their meanings, in french, which is both delightful and helpful. I am very impressed with this dictionary, and cannot laud its attributes enough, in so far as it excells in its particular design. This design, however, is not very suitable, in fact it is hardly suitable, as a general french dictionary for the average on-the-go student. It is very large, and while its binding is very strong, I daren't chance abusing it too forcefully because it is a little expensive to throw around in my back pack. If you are looking for a French dictionary for your home, for your office, or for a study room where you do not expect to transport it very often, then this is surely the dictionary for you. If you want something more akin to a good travel french dictionary, I would suggest something like "Le Robert Micro, edition poche," or one of the other Larousse french dictionaries. They will be smaller and still have very good information.
French for every need.......2006-08-01
This remarkable edition of an old favourite contains every word, every fact, every illustration that the student of French could want. The first section is an illustrated dictionary, useful for technical definitions of machinery, factories, plants etc. The second section contains proper names, places with illustrations and useful geographical and biographical information. This is a full time occupation book and definitely one for the desert island. It is in French only which is fine for those who know some French, as the definitions are in simple French. For learners a small French English dictionary would be a useful accessory.
Nothing 'Petit' about the contents of this dictionary!.......2006-03-22
This is a fantastic resource for students of the French language. The main portion of the dictionary is profusely illustrated and the French used in the definitions is not too difficult. My primary use for this has been to help me while reading literature and I can only say that it has been fantastic.
Near the back, there is a small section which resembles an encyclopedia. It has people, places & ideas which aren't really part of the formal language, but essential to understanding French culture. The space given to each entry is usually only a couple of sentences, but it is still incredibly helpful by giving me just enough information to understand the entry, but not overwhelm me with too much information and distract me from the reading which caused me to use the dictionary in the first place.

A fun book for kids and adults to do together.......2007-07-24
My sons (age 4 and 8) and I adore these books - I only wish they made more in the series. The books are simply laid out enough that a young kid could do the book by himself....if he has reading skills. Although I don't recall a beheading mentioned in the other review, smaller kids who can't read would need an adult to help them. In addition to being fun to search through, these books expose kids to a wide range of artistic periods - from both the East and the West. The books are also a good present for a 6th or 7th birthday - who needs another toy clogging up the toy box?
"I Spy" taken to a whole new level.......2006-11-22
The only reason I did not give 5 stars is that I would have loved to see more famous works of art in the book, but I realized that since it comes from "The Metropolitan Museum of Art", they may not have those. It's a great way to remember art pieces. It's a fun way to study them as well. As for violence in some of the paintings, I did not see anything even remotely as gruesome as some images our children are exposed to on the news or even in cartoons nowadays. There is no reason to shut them off exposure to great art pieces because there is a battle scene in one of them.
Thre is an answer key at the end of the book, with items highlighed. I really appreciated that feature, having spent 3 days searching for an item in one of "I Spy" books. Those don't have answer key. In the same answer key, there is a short description of each painting, short background of the artwork. I found it very helpful as well.
Violent - what were they thinking? Good concept, poor choices........2005-12-30
I purchased this book to give as a gift to my nephew. When it arrived, I opened the book to the middle and I could not believe what I was looking at. One of the art scenes is of a battle where a man charging on a horse has been decapitated. Blood is spewing from the headless neck, his necklace is falling in one direction, and his separated head (with a horror/surprise look on his face) is falling to the ground behind the horse. This is very gruesome, and there is no way I could give this as a gift a child of any age.
Wondering what could be worse, I turned the page to find another battle scene. One man is being struck to the back of the head with a club/mace and his head is caved by the blow. I am not making this up, the head is split open and details are painted. Many others in this same art work lie dead and dieing with arrows in their heads and torsos.
I look at the next artwork, and a man is pinning another to the ground while he slices his throat with a knife.
Why would someone pick these art works? Why would the editors allow them? I'm still stunned that this would make it print.
not pleasant.......2004-12-08
Some of the works of art are lovely, but 2 are too violent for a child to study. In one, a man is being beheaded and another shows a nightmarish scene with a man on fire. Is this the best the author could find? Sure to turn some children away from art.

Don't Waste Your Money..........2005-06-29
I bought the book and the information was helpful to a point but the title should have been: "You Can Find -ALMOST- Anybody" ... If you're are trying to locate a living birth mother and you only have her maiden name, chances are you will have the same luck findng her as I did finding mine... NONE. If you don't know your birth mother's approximate age or birthdate, where she was born, social security number, last known whereabouts, marriage certificate(s), relatives of hers, or cooperation from your own relatives... chances are you won't find her. If you're fortunate to be a guest on a Sally, Maury, or Montel show trying to locate a lost relative, that would be great. Otherwise, the author (Mr Culligan), refers you to a private-eye located in Miami, Fl. who was somewhat helpful in my efforts. Thanx 4 listening..... James E Burns: Richmond, Va.

This is an excellent book to help in locating birth families. The resources available go way beyond what an average person could even know existed. I highly recommend it for adoption searches.

This book I purchased about two years ago. I gave it to my dad, when it helped me find him. He is now looking for one of his brothers. So, needless to say I have to buy another one for me. Thanks for having this book
A Genealogist's Best Friend.......1999-12-20
Excellent resource and invaluable tool for finding leads and digging up old records.
I currently have the 1994 edition, but I'm definitely purchasing the lastest edition.
A great help in getting the ball rolling on any search.......1999-08-01
I bought the book when I decided I wanted to find my father. It became my best friend when I was down and gave me ideas to get me going again. I have never found my father, but have found out so much about him that no one could have ever have told me just knowing him. I would say it is a perfect tool in getting the ball rolling if you are wanting to locate anyone. I would never have known that I have so many rights without it. It is a very straight forward and to the point type book and in plan english-not all that legal talk.

WOW! I was trully amazed by the quality of the book that this amazing woman wrote. I read this book and was able to help others find out what they look good in and how to wear their cosmetics. I was truly in awe at the insights provided by Bernice Kentner. The Model for the front of the book was obviously using the methods described by Bernice, because she is beautiful.
Colorful review.......2000-04-17
I enjoyed this book as its focus was like no other book on color. The main idea centered on the eyes which is the "window of the soul". It also dealt with the psychology of coloring which always fascinates me. Even though it was written years ago, I feel it is very much applicable today.
