- Summary
- From the first ballpark converted from an ice rink in 1862 to the space-aged Houston Astrodome to the league's newest state-of-the-art stadiums, this book tells the history of baseball through its ballparks. Grand in scope and illustrations, and filled with nifty anecdotes, it also explores the changing social climate that accompanied baseball's rise from a minor sport to the national pastime.
