Pairing their detailed, informative research with a sophisticated
anecdotal approach, Joel Zoss and John Bowman have written a
fascinating, original, literate, and concise compendium of the
history and issues surrounding America's national pastime.
Addressed are such diverse topics as the origins of the game, the
contributions of minorities and women, the evolution of umpiring,
baseball's influence on literature and music, substance abuse, on-
and off-field tragedy, and the game's international presence.
"Diamonds in the Rough" is an invaluable and stimulating resource
both for those who already study the game and for those who would
like to learn its revealing history.
