وصف الكتابDuring the 19th century, baseball was a game with few rules, many rowdy players and just one umpire. Dirty tricks were simply part of a winning strategy-spiking, body-blocking, cutting bases short or hiding an extra ball to be used when needed were all OK. Deliberately failing to catch a fly in order to have the game called due to darkness was also acceptable. And drinking before a game was perhaps expected. Providing brief bios of dozens of players, managers, umpires and owners, this book chronicles some of the flamboyant, unruly and occasionally criminal behavior of the baseball's early years.
المراجعة التحريريةFascinating...Mitchell has done a thorough job conveying what it must have been like to play and follow 19th century baseball...an obvious labor of love
عن المؤلفEddie Mitchell has been a baseball fan for 63 years. Upon retirement he was able to take up is passion by being an assistant high school coach for 12 years, winning four state championships. He lives in Portsmouth, Virginia.
