Bowen, Robert Sidney. Player-Manager. 1949. Personal library.
CHUCK LACEY was completing his third year in big-league baseball. Fans and sports writers alike compared the boy wonder with Mel Ott and Bob Feller. He seemed destined for a long and prosperous career. Then the accident occurred-so serious that everyone agreed that Chuck's ball-playing days were over.
Another juvenile baseball story, this time not Little League but big-league players. Can Chuck Lacey make the transition from a great player to a great manager?
