Opis

In 1945 the most famous curse in sports was placed on the Chicago Cubs when Bill Sianis and his goat were ejected from Wrigley Field. Sianis allegedly cursed the Cubs, promising that they'd never again play in the World Series at Wrigley Field. The book focuses on attitudes of players and fans, and attempts to exorcise the curse.
