Great book for any SF Giants fan who wants to know what a former Giants player is doing today.

I got Giants: Where Have You Gone? as a gift and really, really enjoyed it. Growing up as a Giants fan in the late 1970s/early 1980s, my era was that of (among others) Jack Clark, Willie McCovey, Johnnie LeMaster, Will Clark, John Montefusco, Jim Barr, Greg Minton, Joel Youngblood, Matt Williams, Dave Dravecky, Mark Davis, and Kevin Mitchell. Not exactly the team's glory years, so you can imagine how excited I was to catch up with all those guys in the book's pages. It was fascinating reading, reminiscing about their careers and then learning about what happened in their lives after they left the Giants.
I love how the book doesn't just focus on the stars and Hall-of-Famers (though I read the entries on Mays, Cepeda, Marichal, and Perry with great attention), but visits the guys with the short careers or bench players with equal interest. Also, the relatively short chapters make the book absolutely perfect for bathroom reading!
Kudos to Matt Johanson and Wylie Wong for a terrific book.

This is an excellent book that will re-kindle interest in the Giants' tradition. This is a team with a colorful history, and this book describes it beautifully.

The authors did a great job tracking down the former Giants with the most interesting stories. The stories are human, real and well reported. In particular, the Jack Clark chapter is a riot and a must-read for every Dodger-hating Giants fan. Every Giants fan's library should boast a copy.

I just got this book and couldn't put it down from page 1. If I were teaching Baseball History 101, "Giants: Where Have You Gone" would be required reading.
