“The essays here cover several of Angell’s most famous books - and many edited down from the originals. This abridgment is helpful, like easy mode or training wheels since he describes a sport and a culture that is so far gone that I suspect most of us have almost happily forgotten it, and it takes effort (for me) to re-engage with baseball in any real way. For all the four stars, it is more for the reminiscing and the fun compare-and-contrast to today — than any sort of recommendation for the general public.”
