Cubs Forever: Memories from the Men Who Lived Them
I bought this book for my sister as a birthday present and she "loved it".
Our family has been Cubs fans forever. This book was even more than I expected because of its size and beautiful pictures. I would certainly recommend this book to anyone, especially Cubs fans...they are the greatest fans on earth.

Summary of Cubs Forever: Memories from the Men Who Lived Them

For 60 years, WGN-TV has been taking you to the ballpark. And not just any ballpark, but Wrigley Field, with its ivy-covered walls, its Chicago-style hot dogs, and the lovable, occasionally heartbreaking Chicago Cubs. Your couch became your personal bleacher seat as you cheered along with Jack Brickhouse, Harry Caray, Steve Stone, Len Kasper, and Bob Brenly. Now, go behind the scenes with WGN and the Cubs as they celebrate 60 years of broadcasting triumphs with the people who've made you exclaim "Holy Cow!"

Exclusive interviews with former Cubs greats such as Ernie Banks, Billy Williams, Ron Santo, and Ryne Sandberg; celebrity Cubs fanatics like Jimmy Buffett, Bonnie Hunt, Jeff Garlin, and Mike Ditka; and Cubs faithful like the Lakeview Baseball Club and Cubs historian Ed Hartig fill the pages with magical memories from on and off the field. Get behind-the-scenes perspective and learn what it takes to get the broadcast, the locker room, and the field ready for game day from the WGN crew and ballpark employees. Relive some of the best Cubs moments from the past 60 years with interviews from the players who made them happen, including Greg Maddux, Andre Dawson, and Glenn Beckert. Finally, enjoy the accompanying DVD packed with more interview footage. Cubs Forever comes with a special DVD containing interviews with key Cubs and their fans of the past 60 years. Their unique insights, stories, and humor add a dimension that cannot be covered in the book alone.
