More about the book

The narrative chronicles Johnny Vander Meer's remarkable achievement of pitching two consecutive no-hitters in 1938, a record that remains unmatched. Despite early promise and becoming a four-time All-Star, injuries hindered his career, leaving him with a .500 record. The story also highlights the Cincinnati Reds' journey through triumphs, including two National League pennants and a World Series title, alongside the challenges of World War II and the tragic suicide of a teammate, painting a complex portrait of perseverance and legacy.
