Baltimore owes much to Cal and the Ripken family. This book not only shows the man, but the how he became the Iron Man. Stories are by his peers and give a glimpse that Cal's autobiography doesn't even shed. To top things off, it is an easy read and well put together by an experienced Baltimore Sun writer Jeff Seidel. If you are any fan of Baltimore sports, you owe it to yourself to pick up any one of Mr. Seidel's books. They all are very enjoyable reads.

Written by seasoned sports journalist Jeff Seidel, Baseball's Iron Man: Cal Ripken Jr., A Tribute is about star Orioles player and Baltimore baseball legend Cal Ripken Jr. Baseball's Iron Man is not a biography per se, but rather a close examination of Ripken's genius on the field, how he earned his renowned status, and his passion for the game itself. A handful of black-and-white photographs illustrate this excellent celebration by a baseball fan, for baseball fans, and it is entirely fitting that a portion of the proceeds for Baseball's Iron Man will be donated to the Cal Ripken Sr. foundation.
