Alabama Florida League – The Last Rebel Yell by Ken Brooks

 
The Last Rebel Yell by Ken Brooks
The Last Rebel Yell by Ken Brooks
The Last Rebel Yell is a wonderful book about the Alabama-Florida League (it
excludes the Alabama State League years) that is a must for anyone interested
in Class D baseball.  This book is filled with anecdotes, photos, player
profiles, interviews, and stats.  Brooks made the book easy and fun to read,
and also a great book just to browse through. The focus here is on Panama City,
but there’s lots of coverage of the rest of the league too.  This book
is out of print and very hard to find, but some libraries have it in their reference
sections. The Last Rebel Yell is long out of print, but you can somtimes
get a  copy for a fair price ($10-$30) at the  ABEBOOK  Advanced
Book Exchange search facility mentioned above.  At the site, enter the search
for either Last Rebel Yell or Ken Brooks, but be aware that there is a civil
war book by the same title.  A listing of bookstores with copies will
be returned along with the price the store is going to charge.  Complete the
info and an email is sent to the store.  They will contact you back with
purchasing information.  I’ve bought many hard to find books here and highly
recommend the site!
