Description: GLORY FOR GILby Maxine Drury Description Pictorial hardcover no dust jacket; 184 pages; Size Approx. 5 1/2 X 8 1/4. Published by David McKay Company; 1964. Details: This is a scarce book for boys of Little League age. It is a baseball novel about Gil Jenkins, pitcher for the Woodford Hawks. He is an outstanding pitcher, hitter, and first baseman. Just an all around great player, but he is being ruined by his father, who is driving him to be a "glory-grabbing grandstander," instead of a team player. How Gil and his father learn to care about others, and to see the game as a team sport and a game to be enjoyed, and how the other players learn to work hard to improve as players, instead of depending on Gil to "win the game for them," makes an exciting story full of character building lessons for boys! A fine addition for your bookshelf! Condition: Ex-library copy with the usual markings, corners very lightly bumped and light soiling to the back cover, 7 or 8 bent page corners, otherwise in good condition with a solid binding and clean pages.
