...Parmelin. 199 pages. Editions Cercle d'Art and Harry N. Abrams, distributed by International Book Society, a division of Time Inc. $18.

It cracked when he fell on a concrete ramp just before his Mets played an exhibition game against the cadets at West Point. While the Mets were winning, 8-0, surgeons cased Case in plaster and a green sling. Then he returned home, waved his still-solid southpaw, and showed off the durable presence that makes him the most valuable exhibit of all. "If they...
