About This Audiobook
Peter Golenbock's 'Bums' is a rollicking ride through the history of the Brooklyn Dodgers, a team as legendary for their underdog spirit as they were for their on-field prowess.

Raymond Todd's narration brings these larger-than-life figures to life, his enthusiastic delivery capturing the essence of the 'Boys of Summer'.
