You Know Me Al (A Busher's Letters‪)‬

Ring Lardner's masterpiece, "You Know Me Al" is the story of a semi-literate, boastful, self-deceiving boob and rookie ball-player with the Chicago White Sox told through a series of letters home to his friend Al. A brilliant satire, "You Know Me Al" is a detailed portrait of the early days of baseball and America at the beginning of the 20th century.
