this volume presents a detailed look at Forbes Field, home to the
Pittsburgh Pirates for 62 seasons. Part I includes essays on
important events at the stadium (not just in major league baseball
but in boxing, football, and black baseball?Forbes Field also
housed the Homestead Grays) as well as a transcript of the last
game's play-by-play. Historians consider the stadium's legacy and
discuss the dimensions and configurations of the field. In Part II,
more than 55 former players, managers, and club officials of the
Pittsburgh Pirates, over 100 fans, and several sportswriters
reminisce.
