Indians Journal: Year-by-Year and Day-by-Day with the Cleveland Indians Since 1901
This definitive chronicle of one of major league baseball's most beloved — and beleaguered — teams covers every season from 1901 to 2007. Dividing its history by decades, years, and even days, Indians Journal features hitting and pitching highlights, team and individual player stats, interesting and unusual facts, historical and contemporary photographs, and unique "season in a sentence" recaps. Author John Snyder includes it all — starting line-ups, trade info, annual attendance, all-time franchise numbers beyond the ERAs, batting averages including on-base percentages, shut-outs, complete games, and more.

A tome of this magnitude will certainly have its share of misprints, facts in the wrong places, and the like, as the author attempts to cobble together 107 years of history in one volume, but the anecdotes, memories, and game facts make this a worthwhile read for any fan of the Indians. I found it easier to read by simply taking a year each day and reliving the games, events, and the players that make each season unique as opposed to reading more than one year daily or a certain number of pages per day.
