    A Must Read For All Those Who Played It!
  

*by L***H on Reviewed in the United States 🇺🇸 on September 30, 2022*

If you spent hundreds of hours (thousands?) playing Strat-O-Matic baseball as my friends and I did from around the age of 12 until at least the time I graduated from Law School, you won’t want to miss this story of the man behind it and the processes that developed the game!

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ 







  
  
    A must for Strat-O-Matic players

I wish I read this sooner. An inspirational read! If you love SOM, you will love this book. Highly recommended.

    Deserves a broader audience

Strat-O-Matic Fanatics would, at first glance, seem to be of interest only to the small group of die hard enthusiasts who play, and are passionate about, Strat-O-Matic Baseball and want to know how it came to be.Readers are treated to a riveting story, however, about a very shy boy who found solace from his chaotic household surroundings by inventing a game with dice and cards that replicated baseball.  Not only is the creator's (Hal Richman) story vividly told, it is done so with a great deal of sensitivity and insight.  In addition to being a very personal story, it is also a fascinating tale of the formation of a beloeved small business that has managed to survive despite the entry bigger, better funded competitors, due to careful attention to and understanding of the marketplace and its customers.Sadly, few people who don't play Strat will give this book a chance, but anyone could find something to enjoy in this book (for those who DO play the game, its really a must read).NB: The book is well written, despite what a few other reviews state.  I'm already looking forward to Guzzo's next book on baseball statistics.
