Join us on Wednesday night March 24th, at 7pm for an illustrated talk by Robert E. Murphy.
Lamenting the removal of the Dodgers to Los Angeles in 1957 has been a major pastime among traumatized fans for 53 years. But who was to blame?
After poring relentlessly through archives, original news stories, and government documents, Robert Murphy, author of After Many a Summer: The Passing of the Giants and Dodgers and a Golden Age in New York Baseball, gives the most fully-researched answer to that question yet offered.
Seating is limited so come early to meet the author and enjoy wine and cheese.
