The Philadelphia (crossed out) Kansas City Athletics
by: Ernest Mehl

Hardcover. NY, Henry Holt and Company, 2nd pr., 1956, Book: Very Good, Dust Jacket: Fair, Hardcover in a worn, chipped dust jacket. A good read about a sorrowful (for an old Philadelphia A's fan) subject. Mehl gets right into his subject and brings it all together, particularly all the work Arnold Johnson had to do to get Kansas City ready to receive its new franchise and how the city came together and the minor league ballpark was reconstructed to meet Major League standards. 8 pages of b&w photos. No marking.
