Burying the Black Sox: How Baseball's Cover-up of the 1919 World Series Fix Almost Succeeded

by Gene Carney (Author)

Synopsis

Most fans today know that gamblers and ballplayers conspired to "fix" the 1919 World Series - the Black Sox Scandal. Many, however, would be surprised to learn that it took nearly a year to uncover the fix. Burying the Black Sox is the first book to focus on the cover-up that kept the fix from the American public until almost another whole baseball season was played.
