Organized in 1845, the New York Knickerbockers were the first fully
organized base ball club to play the game with written rules
similar to those used today. While the Knickerbockers did not
invent the game, they played an unparalleled role in stabilizing
the playing rules and maintaining standards of conduct in a way
that fostered the astonishing proliferation of players and clubs
which helped to shape the early development of baseball. Based on
years of research and told in the style of oral history, this
fictional work features all the principal figures from the
Knickerbocker club, including Doc Adams, James Whyte Davis,
Alexander Cartwright, William Wheaton, and, Duncan Curry.
