Bill Kauffman, a self-proclaimed "placeist" who believes that
things urban are homogenizing our national scene, returned to his
roots after a bumpy ride on the D.C. fast track. Rarely has he
ventured forth since. Here he illuminates the place he loves,
traveling from Batavia's scenic vistas to the very seams of its
grimy semi-industrial pockets, from its architecturally
insignificant new mall to the pastoral grounds of its
internationally known School for the Blind. Not one to shy from
controversy, Kauffman also investigates his town's efforts to
devastate its landmarks through urban renewal, the passions
simmering inside its clogged political machinery, and the sagging
fortunes of its baseball heroes, the legendary Muckdogs.
