Ty Cobb: Safe at Home

This book is well written, having been thoroughly researched by the author who interviewed several family members. It is about the human side of Cobb and reveals little known events that shows Cobb at times was all about family and community. The book chronicles several of Cobb's friends in Augusta, Detroit, Philadelphia, and elsewhere. It shows him to be highly respected and admired throughout the nation. Of course the ball players of his era were tenacious and highly competitive. There is new material never written about that the reader will find very informative. This is more than about baseball as it is all about Cobb's life. I am sure that many baseball fans will find this book informative and pleasurable.It is one of the best books on Cobb that I have ever read, possibly the greatest player to ever play the game.

Great book. I cannot put it down. Has a lot of facts of Cobb's life which I never read in any other book on the great baseball player.
