Game of Shadows: Barry Bonds, BALCO, and the Steroids Scandal that Rocked Professional Sports b7 Mark Fainaru-Wada and Lance Williams (2006)

 This was another excellent goodwill purchase.  It tells the story of how the track stars, baseball players and other athletes broke a bunch of records in the 1990's and 2000's with steroids and then how they got caught.  It's an entertaining story and there's a lesson in it.

Darryl Strawberry and the Boys of Crenshaw by Michael Sokolove (2004)

 This was a goodwill pickup.  It was great.  Writing was good. Subject- Darryl Strawberry's 1979 Crenshaw High baseball team- was great.  Why was that team so good?  What are they up to now?  Why hasn't Crenshaw High had a team to rival that one since? Not all of the questions are answered but they are all explored.  read it!
