商品簡介
Jacques Barzun famously advised, "Whoever wants to know the heart and mind of America had better learn baseball ..." Less well-known, though, is the rest of his admonition: "... and do it by watching first some high school and small town teams."
In this collection of essays, readers may experience America just as Barzun intended. Taken from the program of the 2006 Walter Prescott Webb Memorial Lectures, Baseball in America and America in Baseball captures the breadth and unsuspected variety of our national fascination and identification with America's Game.
Chapters cover such well-known figures as Ty Cobb, and such lesser-known topics as the "invisible" baseball played by Japanese Americans during the 1930s and 1940s. A study of baseball in rural California from the Gold Rush to the turn of the 20th century provides an interesting study of the ways the game evolved from its earliest beginnings to something most modern observers would find familiar. Chapters on the Negro League's Baltimore Black Sox, financial profits of major league teams from 1900-1956, and American aspirations to a baseball-led cultural hegemony during the first half of the twentieth-century round out this superb collection of sport-history scholarship.
Baseball in America and America in Baseball belongs on the book-shelf of any avid student of the game and its history. It also provides interesting glimpses into the sociology of sport in America.
