Ball games

Starting with its invention in 1842 by the descendant of a British sea captain (and not Abner Doubleday), Frommer traces the development of the sport from the first games on a vacant lot at 27th and Madison in New York to the turn of the century, when the National League was emerging as the preeminent forum for truly professional baseball. Num Pages: 224 pages. BIC Classification: 1KBB; HBTB; WSJT. Dimension: 215 x 140. Weight in Grams: 286.
