The Baseball Anthology: 125 Years of Stories, Poems, Articles, Photographs, Drawings, Interviews, Cartoons, and Other Memorabilia

Like The Ultimate Baseball Book, the oversized anthology covers as much ground as Junior Griffey... and is about as much fun to play with. Filled with photographs, illustrations and cartoons, it chronicles the game from its beginnings, capturing baseball's ethos with punchy snips of fiction, poetry, and journalism extracted from larger, contemporaneous reports woven into a narrative that continually keeps the reader moving.
