"It took more than a century, but we've finally got the book we deserve about baseball's most infamous batting race. Thanks to Rick Huhn, it was worth the wait." - Rob Neyer, national baseball editor of the website Baseball Nation.com "With graceful writing and exhaustive research, Huhn gives life to one of baseball's great untold stories." - Jon Wertheim, senior writer for Sports Illustrated "This is the kind of baseball history we need more of - a book grounded in a great story, shaped by intelligent assessments of the evidence, committed to accuracy and truth-telling, and presented in vigorous prose." - Reed Browning, author of Cy Young: A Baseball Life "The Chalmers Race seamlessly weaves its compelling stories and is a deftly told saga of a game-changing and living controversy." - Gerald C. Wood, author of Smoky Joe Wood: The Biography of a Baseball Legend
