To a consecutive-game record, performed by Cal Ripken Jr.

To a baseball-best six All-Star Game MVPs, including Roberto Alomar.

Orioles fans! Come get your fill of their thrills, smash hits, and sky-high spirit right here. O, Those Orioles! Bucky Fox has unearthed a treasure trove of trivia, anecdotes, and stats about Baltimore's favorite birds. In The Orioles Fan's Little Book of Wisdom, fans will find 101 factoids celebrating the Orioles' rich and quirky history playing ball. Back in 1914, owner/manager Jack Dunn recruited a young and promising Herman Ruth, Jr., nicknamed by the other players "Jack's Newest Babe." The nickname stuck, and Babe Ruth is one of Baltimore's numerous Hall-of-Famers along with "Iron Man" Cal Ripken Jr., elected just this year.

From manager Earl Weaver bellowing at the umps to Frankie Robinson hitting back-to-back grand slams in the same game, the O's have a long history of humorous antics and awesome achievements.



book cover image The Quotable John Wayne

Perhaps best known for his classic movie lines, such as "Fill your hands, you sons-of-bitches!" from True Grit, the late actor John Wayne often displayed a spontaneous and biting wit when away from the screen as well. When a reporter from the Harvard Crimson sarcastically asked Wayne if he looked at himself as an "American Legend," for example, the Duke replied: "Well, not being a Harvard man, I don't look at myself any more than necessary." This small gem of inspiration contains Wayne anecdotes on God and country, the old West, friends and family, and acting, and concludes with quotes from others about John Wayne the actor and John Wayne the man.
