Omschrijving

Alibi Ike is a classic American novel written by Ring Lardner. The book tells the story of Frank X. Farrell, a talented baseball player who has a knack for making excuses. He is given the nickname ""Alibi Ike"" by his teammates due to his tendency to blame others for his mistakes on the field. Despite this flaw, Frank is a skilled player and is recruited by a major league team. However, his tendency to make excuses causes problems both on and off the field. The novel is a humorous and satirical look at the world of baseball and the culture of excuses in American society. It explores themes of honesty, responsibility, and the importance of owning up to one's mistakes. With its witty dialogue and engaging characters, Alibi Ike is a timeless classic that continues to entertain readers today.They was together every mornin' and evenin' for the five days we was there. In the afternoons Ike played the grandest ball you ever see, hittin' and runnin' the bases like a fool and catchin' everything that stayed in the park. I told Cap, I says: You'd ought to keep the doll with us and he'd make Cobb's figures look sick.""This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
