Before multimillion-dollar salaries, luxury boxes, and player
strikes became synonymous with professional sports, there existed
the belief in playing simply for the love of the game. Nothing
captures that spirit better than these twenty classic pieces about
America's favorite pastime.
Collected here are the writings of Ring Lardner, Zane Grey, the
Giants' immortal Christy Mathewson, Grover Cleveland Alexander,
Finley Peter Dunne (who for a time was America's most popular
humorist after Mark Twain), Burt Standish (creator of that
all-American hero, Frank Merriwell), and many more. Baseball's
golden era may have long since passed, but in the pages of At the
Old Ballgame, you can still sit in the bleachers for a nickel.
