Description: KEYSTONE KIDSby John R. Tunis____________________________Hardcover with dust jacket; 209 pages; Size Approx. 5 3/4 X 8 1/4.Published by Harcourt, Brace & World; copyright 1943, later printing M.2.66.Details: "This book introduces Spike and Bob Russell, brothers, orphans and a superb shortstop/second base combination. The story opens with them toiling in the minor leagues but making a very good impression on their manager Grouchy. With their skills and confidence, the brothers move up to the major leagues and begin playing for the Brooklyn Dodgers. When they arrive, the team is that in name only, there is no cohesion among the players, and they are mired in the second division, with little hope of rising."In a move that seems to be one of desperation, the owner of the team elevates the older brother Spike to be a player-manager. Since he is so young, Spike is met with initial skepticism from the veterans, yet it appears that he wins them over. However, when the Jewish catcher Jocko Klein offends some of the veterans, ethnic hatred flares up and Spike finds it necessary to chastise some of the players, including his brother Bob. Yet, when some fans ride Klein unmercifully, it is Bob that leads the counterattack. Tunis does a very good job in setting the context for battling anti-Semitism using the premise of standing up for a teammate." ~ goodreads book reviewA fine addition for your bookshelf!Condition: Ex-library copy with the usual markings, the dust jacket is in a clear protective cover which was taped to the covers leaving some tape residue on the covers, otherwise in good condition with a solid binding and clean pages.
