Providing a behind-the-scenes look at the personalities and events that
have shaped the Detroit Tigers' recent resurgence, readers will meet the
players, coaches, and management and share in their moments of
greatness, grief, and quirkiness. Beginning in 2002, when author Mario
Impemba arrived in the Tigers' broadcast booth and when the team had
consecutive 100-loss seasons, the book details how, in just three shorts
years, team president Dave Dombrowski and manager Jim Leyland led the
Tigers to the American League pennant--a feat the Tigers repeated in
2012. Impemba takes readers into the Comerica Park broadcast booth
alongside the legendary Ernie Harwell, onto the team plane during the
team's two runs to the World Series, and into the clubhouse as Miguel
Cabrera closed in on the 2012 Triple Crown. He shares personal stories
about several Tigers stars, including Cabrera, Justin Verlander, Prince
Fielder, Curtis Granderson, Ivan Rodriguez, Kenny Rogers, Magglio
Ordonez, and more. If These Walls Could Talk: Detroit Tigers gives
fans a taste of what it's like to be a part of the Tigers storied
history from a perspective unlike any other.
