Synopsis
of
"All That Once Was Good"
"All That Once Was Good: Inside America's National Pastime" by Howard Rothman, is a different kind of baseball book. It tells the story of the Colorado
Rockies, the most successful new franchise in the history of sports, by looking at the behind-the-scenes, off-field side of the team. The result is a
thoroughly enjoyable examination of the business of baseball before, during and after the most painful labor dispute ever in pro sports.
