Faithful: Two Diehard Boston Red Sox Fans Chronicle the Historic 2004 Season Stewart O’Nan & Stephen King Scribners, $26, 412 pages, ISBN: 0743267524 reviewed by Barry Hunter Over the years there have been two curses in baseball that explained why certain teams fell apart in the post season. "The Curse of the Goat" still seems to be intact as the Chicago Cubs fell apart again. The Boston Red Sox have finally broken "The Curse of the Bambino" with their World Series win of 2004 and two of their most FAITHFUL fans have written a witty, entertaining book about the rough low and exceptional high points of the season. This is a book that is not just for the Red Sox fans, it’s for the lover of the sport and seeing a different side of two writers as they tackle a true story that is almost as strange as any story they could have made up.

Over the years there have been two curses in baseball that explained why certain teams fell apart in the post season. "The Curse of the Goat" still seems to be intact as the Chicago Cubs fell apart again.

The Boston Red Sox have finally broken "The Curse of the Bambino" with their World Series win of 2004 and two of their most FAITHFUL fans have written a witty, entertaining book about the rough low and exceptional high points of the season.

This is a book that is not just for the Red Sox fans, it’s for the lover of the sport and seeing a different side of two writers as they tackle a true story that is almost as strange as any story they could have made up.
