内容説明
Riess' "Touching Base" is now revised and expanded. "Touching Base" examines the myths as well as the realities, symbols, and rituals of "America's favourite pastime". Steven Riess details the relationships among urban politics, communities, and baseball, exploring how debates over issues, such as Sunday games, ballpark construction, and the promotion of the game were shaped by Progressive Era sensibilities. Focusing on Atlanta, New York, and Chicago, Riess analyzes the spectators, owners, and players to evaluate how baseball both influenced and mirrored broader society.
