Summary

With a narrative by Geoffrey C. Ward, a preface to the new edition by Ken Burns and Lynn Novick, a new chapter by Kevin Baker, and an introduction by Roger Angell
Essays by Thomas Boswell, Robert W. Creamer, Gerald Early, Doris Kearns Goodwin, Bill James, David Lamb, Daniel Okrent, John Thorn, George F. Will
And featuring an interview with Buck O’Neil
“A rich concoction of narrative, essays, and photos that dazzles the eye . . . In so many ways you are reminded that rooting for baseball is like breathing.” -Christopher Lehmann-Haupt, The New York Times
“Stirring and reflective . . . A beautiful book that stands on its own in any league.” -David E. Jones, Chicago Tribune
“Glorious nuggets are set amid the clear, warm narrative and hundreds of classic images . . . Highest marks for browseability, but the true reward comes from the longer essays by folks still smitten by the game.” -Jerry Shriver, USA Today
