An inspiring look at the heroism and heartbreak of the 1975 World
Series. In a year when the nation sorely needed a diversion from the
harsh news of the day, it arrived in the form of a Fall Classic that
would live up to its name and never be forgotten. The Boys of October
takes the reader back to those 12 exhilarating days in 1975, when the
field was guarded by greatness–Carl Yastrzemski, Carlton Fisk, Pete
Rose, Johnny Bench–as the ragtag Boys from Beantown faced Cincinnati’s
“Big Red Machine.”
Their triumphs and tribulations are all
here, from Fisk’s historic winning homer in the wee hours of Game Six,
to the series’ nail-biting finale, decided by a single, heart-stopping
run. Through it all, the Boston Red Sox embodied the spirit of the
game, in victory and defeat, to give us the series we needed– and one
we’ll never forget. Against the backdrop of one turbulent summer, The
Boys of October celebrates baseball and the heroes who made it what it
is.
