What fans don’t love to relive the good times of their favorite team? Likewise, in a twisted sort of way, what fans can really resist a self-pitying look back on some of those times that tested their allegiance? Those forgettable games, seasons, and plays that made the good times even better?

The Good, the Bad, and the Ugly Cleveland Indians by Mary Schmitt Boyer presents all the best moments and personalities in the history of the Cleveland Indians. It also unmasks, but doesn’t revel in, the bad, the regrettably awful and the unflinchingly ugly.

In entertaining—and unsparing—fashion, this book sparkles with Indians highlights, lowlights, wonderful and wacky memories, legends and goats, the famous and the infamous. You’ll relive the impressive playoff run in 2007 but also the horrendous moments, such as the Indians 23-2 loss to the Twins in 2003. The opening of Jacobs Field in 1994 but also the black eye that was 10¢ beer night in 1974.

The Good, the Bad, the Ugly Cleveland Indians includes the best and worst Indians teams and players of all time, the most clutch performances and performers, the biggest choke jobs and chokers, great comebacks and blown leads, plus overrated and underrated Indians players and coaches. There are Indians you loved for all the right reasons, and those you couldn’t stand, sublime and embarrassing records, and trades, both savvy and savagely bad. Brawls and fights. Rivalries. Compelling photos. And much more.

If you’re a through-thick-and-thin Indians follower, The Good, the Bad, and the Ugly Cleveland Indians is definitely for you. It will remind you of the good and great teams and bring a knowing smile about some of those other times, when you proved yourself to be a loyal fan. For everyone else, this warts-and-all portrait of the Indians will provide countless fond memories, goose bumps, and laughs.
