The Forgotten Marlins: A Tribute to the 1956-1960 Original Miami Marlins brings to life one of the most colorful and flamboyant teams to ever grace the diamonds of minor league baseball. Includes rarely-heard stories about baseball’s Satchel Paige’s years in Miami, including interviews with ballplayers. During their five years of existence, the Marlins featured such prominent personalities as eccentric manager Pepper Martin, free-spirited southpaw pitcher Mickey McDermott, maverick promoter Bill Veeck, and the iconic Hall-of-Famer Satchel Paige. Although the team was an instant sensation, drawing national attention with their outlandish promotions, success did not always follow. Relive those halcyon days and follow in detail the triumphs and tribulations of the ownership and players on and off the field.With a foreword by Marty Lurie.
