Tales from the Pirates Dugout

This is a love story. It's a collection of tales about a life-long relationship between a baseball team and its fans. The story of the Pittsburgh Pirates overflows with anecdotes and illustrations that tell us a lot about the team, about the city, and about the people who call Pittsburgh their "home." In a sense, the history of the Pirates is a mirror image of the people who were schooled in the "steel-mill mentality."
