Boston Red Sox: The Heartbreak Decade (1968–80)
$4.99
The culture of the Boston Red Sox changed forever after 1967’s Impossible Dream. That pennant run awakened a region—but what followed defined a generation. Through the 1970s, Boston fielded one great team after another… and came up one play short, again and again.
From the optimism of 1968 to the agony of 1980, this is the story of how a new era of Red Sox Nation was truly born. Talent, tension, and time running out.
