The history of the Royals in Kansas City may not be a long one--the team first played in Kansas City in 1969--but it is a proud one.
Embraced by a loyal fan base and boosted by small-market spunkiness, the team was a constant threat in the 1970s and 1980s, making multiple playoff appearances before beating the St.
Louis Cardinals for the World Series.
Packed with personalities, places, events, and facts, this fun and informative book is the perfect tool for any fan looking to take his love for the Boys in Blue to a whole new level.
