10. "Sports Illustrated Baseball's Greatest," by Editors of Sports Illustrated

And for that sports fan on your list, "Sports Illustrated Baseball's Greatest" now follows last year's "Sports Illustrated Football's Greatest" as the must-have sports book of the year. Sports Illustrated columnist Tom Verducci leads a panel of SI writers as they duke it out over proposed lists of the truly greatest of baseball's greats. The photos are irresistible and the writing is SI-standard excellent, which means that there's every reason for baseball fans to love this book. (Time Home Entertainment, $32.95, 288 pp.)
