From Library Journal
Anderson has written an entertaining and well-researched study of the Detroit Tigers baseball team. As one of the original members of the American League, which was formed in 1901, their history is rich with names like Ty Cobb, Hank Greenberg, and Al Kaline. The photographs collected here, many of which have not been widely available, are clear and well presented. The book is printed on heavy stock paper and is a delight to hold and read. While this is particularly recommended for Midwestern libraries serving Tiger fans, libraries with strong sports collections should also consider purchasing, as it is many notches above the cartloads of sports schlock being published today.

Product Review
A must-read for any Tigers fan. The pictures alone give you goosebumps. --Rob Parker, sports columnist at the Detroit News
From the corner of Michigan and Trumbull to frontage on Woodward Avenue, the Detroit Tigers have witnessed some of the greatest moments in baseball. Bill Anderson's updated pictorial history includes amazing photographs of these moments and the players, many of which have never before been published and all of which will be treasured by Tigers fans. --Ernie Harwell, Hall of Fame baseball announcer and author of Tuned to Baseball and other books
