Another bull’s-eye by Steven Travers. He has captured the love, laughter, and largesse of the 1962 baseball season, maybe the most entertaining season of all time, especially in New York, Los Angeles, and San Francisco. Yes, he can. And did. 

- Maury Allen, author of Yankees World Series Memories

Steve Travers does a really fine job of capturing not only the highlights and sidelights of those memorable days in the early 1960s, but he also focuses on some of the legends of that golden era, including Willie Mays, Mickey Mantle, Maury Wills, Orlando Cepeda, Don Drysdale, Whitey Ford, and so many more. Entertaining, informative, and a great read for the hardcore and the casual fan.
- Bruce Macgowan, Comcast SportsNet Bay Area

If (Travers) ever decides to write another screenplay, he might do well to base the next one on his own life . . . As for the movie based on his own life, he can probably hold off on developing that one for now. He's got a lot of work ahead of him still . . . Steven Travers always seems to have a new sports book hot off the presses these days.
- Vincent Tannura, Marin Independent Journal

He brings the perspective of a former athlete. He's a good writer, and he's got a real passion for what he does, especially for Southern Cal football, and that's always great to have in a writer.
- Tom Bast, Triumpoh Books

ESPN Voice Jon Miller dubs the 1962 baseball season his ‘coming of age as a baseball fan.’ Steven Travers relives that season in this engaging and lively work. A book utterly worthy of an unforgettable yewar.
- Curt Smith, author of Voices of the Game and Pull Up a Chair: The Vin Scully Story

Steve Travers has written a literary masterpiece, One Night, Two Teams. He is going to be a legend.

—Winston Groom, author of Forrest Gump

- Fred Wallen, John Woolard, Sports Overnight

Steve Travers combines wit, humor, social pathos and historical knowledge with the kind of sports expertise that only an ex-jock is privy to; it is reminiscent of the work of Jim Bouton, Pat Jordan and Dan Jenkins, combined with Jim Murray’ turn of phrase, Hunter Thompson’s hard-scrabble Truths, and David Halberstam’s unique take on our nation’s place in history. His writing is great storytelling, and the result is pure genius every time.
—Westwood One radio personality Mike McDowd

- Oakland A’s general manager Billy Beane

Steven Travers is one of the most accomplished sports sports journalists in our nation today and One Night, Two Teams is his defining work to this point.
- Strandbooks.com

Travers, a USC grad, portrays the game and USC's victory as a tipping point in the integration of college football and the South, a triumph for the forces of equality . . . his larger view of the game hits home in most respects, and he provides a compelling account- drawing from dozens of interviews with participants, coaches, drawing from dozens of others - of a clash between two schools with decidedly different approaches to the composition of their football rosters . . . Ain all, an intriguing premise and a well-told story.
- Wes Lukowsky, Booklist

The book is not just about sports but how sports and that September 1970 game in particular relate to the intertwining of sports, race, politics, history, religion and philosophy.
- Harold Abend, In Scope

(The chapter in One Night, Two Teams) on Martin Luther King - the description of the civil rights movement - your insights, the research - what an education I received from reading it. It should be required reading by every student in America! Every citizen. No wonder there were so many African Americans on the Mall a week ago! . . . I am sure there are many blacks who would say it is impossible for a white man to really understand the struggle. And, in one sense they are definitely right because you are not black. But, wow - I think you did an excellent job in bringing it together - telling the story and making me think!

I got this new book about the Dodgers called Dodgers Past and Present. It is a cool book about the Dodgers.

A's Essential: Everything You Need To Be a Real Fan offers a breezy history (with emphasis on the Oakland years), player biographies, Top 10 lists, trivia questions and more about the Athletics' franchise that has resided in Philadelphia, Kansas City and, since 1968, Oakland.
- Bruce Dancis/Sacramento Bee

The author . . . sends a clear message that what we need to understand to be a real fan is history.

Fans of our Northern California big league teams will enjoy the latest entries in two series from Triumph Books. "Few and Chosen: Defining Giants Greatness Across the Eras" ($25.95, 256 pages), by former New York Giants hero Bobby Thomson and journalist Phil Pepe, chooses the all-time best players in the long history of the New York and San Francisco Giants, while "A's Essential: Everything You Need To Be a Real Fan" ($19.95, 240 pages) by Steven Travers, offers a breezy history (with emphasis on the Oakland years), player biographies, Top 10 lists, trivia questions and more about the Athletics' franchise that has resided in Philadelphia, Kansas City and, since 1968, Oakland.
- Bruce Dancis/Sacramento Bee

A's Essential unintentionally stirs a debate. While A's fans see their favorite players, Giambi, Tejada, Zito (and the list goes on), disappear for the greener pastures of free agency every year, the A's persevere. Look no further than the 2007 A's. Though virtually all of their best players have fallen and landed on the DL, the A's continue to perform successfully and are within shouting distance of the division lead. But if the team is not in fact the same team, what exactly are the fans cheering for? The great players on the DL? No. Their favorite players long gone to New York and San Francisco? Certainly not. The town of Oakland-hometown pride? Maybe, maybe not. When discussing this problem, Billy Beane has often referenced the old Jerry Seinfeld line, that A's fans are just 'rooting for laundry.' There is no easy answer to this question, but it is something we can try to determine by looking trough the pages of the aptly titled A's Essential: Everything You Need to Know to Be a Real Fan! by Steven Travers.
- Brian James Oak

This is a great book … I like the way this book is put together.
- WDEF Radio, Chattanooga

One Night, Two Teams is a literary masterpiece, and within two years Steve Travers will be a legend.
- Vincent "Mr. Football" Turner, Radio blogspot

Travers has produced a certifiable masterpiece with this portrayal of those Amazin' '69 Mets; the team that inspired the imagination of fans everywhere by not only making it to the World Series, but winning it as well, despite overwhelming odds. It's a great book. Travers brings the people & events clearly into focus, 40 years after the fact, with such clarity, it seems like it's a present-day story; it was a brilliant depiction of a team that may have appeared to be a bit flawed, but banded together in stunning fashion to shock the baseball world. Rarely. Rarely has a team captured the imagination of an entire country like those Mets, and it's a treat to recapture that magical season, with a superb piece of writing.
- Larry Underwood. Life Under the Corporate Microsope

Steven Travers is the best sportswriter in America. I have read all of Steven Travers' books, about 17 by now, and this is the finest sportswriter - maybe the best writer, period - in the U.S. He is a wordsmith who totally makes the 1969 season come alive. This book is a tapestry of baseball, New York City in disarray, the Vietnam War, a changing culture, racial attitudes, hippies, the whole scene in 1969. The Mets, Charles Manson, the Moon shot; all in one year. Tom Seaver is depicted as this Rushmore character, yet his flaws are not papered over. The way the season plays out, it reads like a novel. This should definitely be made into a movie!!
- Michael E. Woodson


Travers Always Hits a Home Run. I have long admired Steve Travers' work. His crisp and fast-paced writing style always keeps me hooked. I am truly amazed at the information he is able to gather to put his content together. He knows how to create a fascinating story and how to tell it well. Given the chance to speak to Mr. Travers I would say "Keep 'em comin' because your books are both delightful and insightful to read!!"

Steve is a talented guy.
- Greg Papa, Comcast SportNet Bay Area Chronicle Live host

This is just one of the many tasty bits of trivia packed into Steven Travers’ treatment of the Dodgers franchise. 
- Robert Democh, At Home Plate

Nobody, and I mean nobody, has come close to capturing the feel, the attitude and the unqiue sense of Americana, Southern California style, that happened when big league ball came to Hollywood, like this awesome writer Steve Travers. This book is fabulous.
- Famozz

Dodgers: Past and Present is an excellent overview of an iconic franchise.  Whether you are a Dodgers fan or simply a baseball fan wanting to learn more about the game’s history, it’s an enjoyable book to add to your collection.
- Matt Smith, Baseball Great Britain

- Publisher's Weekly

Travers paints a beautiful picture of baseball in its golden age, a time that should be remembered fondly. All of the characters with their required personas are there: the declining superstar Duke Snider, the partying Mickey Mantle and the blossoming superstar in Willie Mays. Travers integrates these stories into his storytelling seamlessly. It allows him to shift from topic to topic without catching up readers' attention.

The images are unforgettable, and too numerous to count.

his book tells the tale of the single most impossible, unbelievable, and wonderful sports story of all time—of the 1969 “Amazin’ Mets” and their incredible spring, summer, and fall. But it does much more than simply recount how the worst sports franchise ever ascended to greatness in a few short months.

Travers appears to have the right credentials for the task: He is a former minor leaguer who also penned screenplays in addition to a column for the San Francisco Examiner.
