No Crying in Baseball

No Crying in Baseball: The Inside Story of A League of Their Own: Big Stars, Dugout Drama, and a Home Run for Hollywood by Erin Carlson This is the story of the film, and of course the most famous line from the film that still endures. Also, this is biography of Penney Marshall land the difficulties she had to make the film, but also the success that came along with making the film. Many great behind the scenes stories of the filming and preperation. For many of the actors in the film this had a lasting affect on them and their careers and was not just anoth gig. A companion piece to this would be "The Church of Baseball: The Making of Bull Durham". I think between these two books we have descriptions of two of the best movies about baseball, both about obscure teams, one real one fictional. Incidentally "A League..." is the most successful baseball movie of all time.
