Here are some of the books and sites I used in compiling this information, from the project's beginning in the summer of 2011 and its arrival on the Web in 2013 and '14 to further research done in 2023 and '24. On links provided (if any) with this blog's pages, I make no representation as to the content of the sites to which I might link.
I never properly cited Baseball Digest as a source for that Hank Aaron post, so unless I still have (and can find) the March-April 2019 issue somewhere, it will remain uncited.
