From Publishers Weekly "This history of baseball in anecdotal form contains many familiar stories， but many more that will be new to fans，" wrote PW. "The book is fun to read， especially when consumed piecemeal." Copyright 1990 Reed Business Information， Inc. From School Library Journal YA-- A chronologically arranged， entertaining collection of colorful anecdotes. The book begins by debunking the theory that Abner Doubleday "invented" baseball and espouses the evolution rather than creation theory of the origins of baseball. The first game of something called Base Ball was played on June 19， 1846， and this book begins with an account of that game and carries baseball through the World Series of 1986. Although most anecdotes concern colorful characters， there are also entries with titles such as "The Rabbit Ball，" "1920s Players，" and "The Move West." An index makes this collection suitable for light research， but its real value will be as enjoyable reading or browsing. Baseball lovers of all ages will relish this book.- Patricia Lilly， Holub Middle School， Alief， TXCopyright 1989 Reed Business Information， Inc. --This text refers to the Hardcover edition.
