Inhoud:

Looks into the early history of the baseball game and of the 150-year-old debate about its beginnings. This title tackles one stubborn misconception after another, debunking the enduring belief that baseball descended from the English game of rounders and revealing an explanation for the notorious myth - the Abner Doubleday-Cooperstown story.
