“proves to be a masterly look at Ebbets Field”—Library Journal; “The Zinns [take] on the task of painstakingly recounting or adding to the historical record of Ebbets Field. They are careful historians...[and their] efforts, and those of their collaborators Ellen Snyder-Grenier, James Overmyer, and Ronald Selter, are meticulously footnoted” —SABR Deadball Committee Newsletter; “fans memories, prove to be well worth reading. Each tells an individual story adorned with family tradition, memories of first games attended, and nostalgia for a team that truly was part of the neighborhood”—Nine.
