Beskrivning
The story of baseball in America begins not with the fabled Abner Doubleday but with a generation of mid-nineteenth-century Americans who moved from the countryside to the cities and brought a cherished but delightfully informal game with them.
Peter Morris's most recent book is Catcher: How the Man Behind the Plate Became an American Folk Hero. His A Game of Inches was the first book ever to win both the Seymour Medal and the Casey Award as the best baseball book of the year. He lives in Haslett, Michigan.
Recensioner i media
I first heard about Peter Morris because he was one of America’s preeminent Scrabble players. Now he has achieved an even greater distinction: one of America’s preeminent baseball historians. But Didn’t We Have Fun? is exhaustively researched and artfully written—an invaluable contribution to the early history of our sport and our country.
