Summary of Richie Ashburn Remembered

This book takes an inside look at this favorite adopted son of Philadelphia through the eyes of some former teammates including Robin Roberts, Putsy Cabalero, Don Zimmer, and Bob Miller. Baseball personalities such as Willie Mays, Hank Aaron, Carl Erskine, Mike Schmidt, Tim McCarver, and others also share their memories of "Whitey."

In addition to sharing his memories of Richie Ashburn, his dear friend and fellow member of the Baseball Hall of Fame, Phillies long time broadcaster Harry Kalas, has penned a poignant foreword for his broadcasting pal.

Richie Ashburn Remembered will make the city of Philadelphia fall in love with Richie Ashburn all over again and keep his memory alive and eternal for all fans, young and old. Move over, Ben Franklin. This Philadelphia icon may be gone but will never be forgotten.
