Dodgers Encyclopedia

The Dodgers Encyclopedia: Second Edition is the definitive book on Los Angeles and Brooklyn Dodgers baseball. It traces the history of one of Major League Baseball's most successful organizations, from the misty beginnings of its predecessors in rural Brooklyn more than 140 years ago, through their formative years in the major leagues, as a member of the American Association from 1884 through 1889, to a fullfledged representative of the National League since 1890. It covers the exciting and often zany years in Brooklyn through 1957, as well as a long and successful sojourn in Southern California during the last half of the 20th century and the first part of the new millennium (2002).McNeil, William F. is the author of 'Dodgers Encyclopedia', published 0009 under ISBN 9781582616339 and ISBN 1582616337.
