In "Anti-Ameicanism," a French intellectual comes to the defense of America (which is welcome), attributing most European anti-Americanism to disguised anti-capitalism on the part of Europeans who secretly favor totalitarianism over democracy (in which he's probably correct.) Unlike De Tocqueville, however, it appears Revel writes from Paris, and he gets a few details wrong, quoting a French police source for his report that the anarchic black market in arms in France is actually worse than the American system (possibly true) since "The officially condoned selling of arms to individuals in America at least makes provision for the registration of the purchaser's name, who must also pay for a license and be fingerprinted." While this describes the current (albeit unconstitutional) American system of MACHINE-GUN registration, and in some jurisdictions the set-up for acquiring a "concealed-carry permit," in fact most American gun owners of course purchased their legal arms without any fingerprinting or "licensing" . . . the victim-disarmament dreams of Nancy Pelosi and Dianne Feinstein notwithstanding. In our second volume, John Gibson's "Hating America," the TV host watches the foreign press after 9/11 -- not just in the Middle East, but also in Europe, Asia and Canada -- attacking America with "an off-the-charts level of venom, a scandalous parade of mistaken assumptions, an endless font of suspicion, mistrust, and the promulgation of outright, willful lies." 176 and 288 pp., respectively. The lot of two books on related topics now reduced from $20.

In early October 2001, Dominic DiMaggio and Johnny Pesky begin a 1,300-mile trip by car to visit their beloved teammate Ted Williams, knowing that he is dying. Bobby Doerr, the fourth member of this close group-"my guys," Williams used to call them-is unable to be with them because he is back in Oregon tending to his wife of sixty-three years, Monica, who has suffered her second stroke. Thus begins David Halberstam's The Teammates, a profoundly human story of four great ballplayers who have made the passage from sports icons-when they were young and seemingly indestructible-to men dealing with the vulnerabilities of growing older. At the core of the book is the friendship of these four very different but extraordinary men, the key players in a remarkable Boston Red Sox team, who stayed close to each other for more than sixty years. First among them was Ted Williams, not only a dominating player but a dominating personality as well. "It was like there was a star on top of his head, pulling everyone toward him like a beacon," recalls Johnny Pesky. Pesky met the others when he was still a clubhouse boy in Portland and they would tip him a quarter to shine their shoes. He would soon become one of the league's toughest hitters and something of a little brother to Williams. Dom DiMaggio, the center fielder, was an athlete carried as much by his remarkable intelligence as by his natural talent. Small and bespectacled, he grew up partially in the shadow of his older brother, but would end up a seven-time American League All-Star. It was to Dom that Ted would increasingly turn to for support in later years. And then there was future Hall of Famer Bobby Doerr, a professional ballplayer at sixteen, who right from the start displayed a natural grace and maturity that made him the perfect buddy for the temperamental ever-contentious Williams. The Teammates is the story of two trips: the final one that DiMaggio and Pesky are taking to see Williams, and another, a flight back in time, as they and Bobby Doerr recall the wonders of their years together and reminisce bout a magical era. What Halberstam has given us is a book about baseball, and something more, the richness of friendship.
