About this book

The Washington Senators joined the Major Leagues as an expansion team in 1961, facing some incredible losses at the start of their involvement. They lost over 100 games in each of their four seasons and recorded losing seasons in ten of their eleven seasons in the capital. The Senators became the Rangers when the franchise moved to Texas in 1971, but life still started out hard! Fans would have to wait until the 1990s before the team saw any real success. The greatest period in Rangers' history came in the 2010 and 2011 seasons when the team won two consecutive AL pennants, then finally in 2023 they won their first World Series.

Filled with Austin American-Statesman and Times Record News coverage starting with 1972, this book recounts the history of the team through the words of the reporters who witnessed the games at the time.

The Baseball History of Texas Rangers FAQs

How long will this book take to arrive?

Each of our orders is printed on demand, made special just for you and the reader you’ve created it for! Typically, it takes 1-3 days for our workshops to receive, make, and finally hand each order over to the postal carriers for delivery.

Are the pages real, or reproductions of newspapers?

The pages are scans of original newspaper pages. Every effort has been made to clean up scans to make them as clear as possible. In some instances there will be blemishes and the reproduction quality may not be as clear or precise as copying directly from the actual papers itself.

Who would this baseball book make a great gift for?

Our baseball history books would make a great gift for any lover of the history of baseball. However, the each book is designed to appeal to fans of the individual baseball teams. They make a great keepsake to look back on again and again.

Does the book contain every newspaper article about the team?
