## Description

Though very few teams can accurately be called dynasties, the 1940s Cardinals certainly made a strong case. Detractors argue that World War II made the 40s an asterisk decade, with a huge loss of talent and significant changes to the ball and to the game itself. During that era, though, the Cardinals dominated the National League, winning four pennants and three World Series titles, and their rosters included names like Musial and Slaughter. This is the history of the Cardinals during the 1940s, a decade that saw many of the greatest St. Louis clubs while war and integration significantly altered the game. Chapters follow the Cards year-by-year, covering each season with description, statistics and analysis. Interwoven throughout are the stories of wartime changes, including the loss of players like Branch Rickey; the death of Judge Landis; the Pacific Coast League's demand for major league status; the first attempt at a players' union; Mexican League talent raids; and the Cardinals' early attempts to thwart integration. An appendix offers complete individual hitting and pitching statistics.Language: EnglishBinding: PaperbackPublisher: McFarland & Co IncGenre: Sports & RecreationISBN: 9780786426447, 0786426446Pages: 306Imprint: McFarland & Co Inc
