Did you grow up with your Dad telling you stories about great ballplayers of the past, with emphasis on Ty Cobb? I sure did.
If you had this same experience, you'll enjoy a book review in the Claremont Review of Books of Charles Leerhsen's Ty Cobb: A Terrible Beauty. Who knows? If your Dad (or Granddad) really got you hooked, you might even end up reading the book.
