Long Before The Miracle: The Making of the New York Mets
MORE METS HISTORY! -- Long Before The Miracle, a SABR-award winning account of the birth of the New York Mets, is now in its SECOND EDITION. The latest version features 143 more pages and photographs of Mets players and coaches, plus a new Foreword by Ron Hunt, the first Met player to start in an All-Star Game (1964). An expanded Prologue closely examines the impasse that left New York City without a National League team after the 1957 season, leading to the formation of the National League expansion Mets in 1962. Reflecting on the Dodgers' move to Los Angeles and the battle royal between Brooklyn Dodgers owner Walter O'Malley and New York City power broker Robert Moses, O'Malley's son Peter called author Bill Sullivan's Prologue the most accurate account that we have seen." In 2018, Sullivan was invited to discuss and sign the first edition as part of the National Baseball Hall of Fame's Summer Author Series." Other new Second Edition features include stories on Art Shamsky, Ron Swoboda, and Mets' public relations guru Jay Horwitz by editor Greg Forrer.
