5.0 out of 5 stars An evocative book that touches the true soul of the game., 31 July 1999

By A Customer

This review is from: Baseball: An Illustrated History (Hardcover)

Anyone who ever played or watched the game cannot fail to be moved by the rich tapestry of baseball legend that comes to live in the text and especially the illustrations of this book. The essay by Doris Kearn reminiscing about the Brooklyn Dodgers, and tying that into the love for her family is haunting and very beautiful, while Thomas Boswell's reflections on his mother's love for the Washington Senators is moving as well as dryly hilarious. In its essence each player discussed in detail comes to life in poignant detail. A must for anyone who cares deeply for the game.

5.0 out of 5 stars The definitive book on baseball history., 13 July 1998

By A Customer

This review is from: Baseball: An Illustrated History (Paperback)

I've read Ward & Burns' book twice. I could look at the historic photos for hours. It is NOT filled with stats, batting averages, or on-base percentages. I was amazed at the true origins of my favorite sport. The quotes are thought provoking and it takes me down memory lane each time I pick it up. If you want to smell the green grass on a summer afternoon, hear the crack of a wooden bat smothered by the roar of the crowd or wipe the dirt from your uniform after you slide into second, then read Baseball:An Illustrated History.

4.0 out of 5 stars Preserve your memories of the 1998 World Series, 3 Oct 2003

By A Customer

This review is from: Baseball - World Series 1998 [VHS] (VHS Tape)

The reason for getting a video about any World Series is to be able to relive the moments you experienced watching the games live. For me the pivotal moment in the 1998 World Series was in the 8th inning of game three when Paul O'Neill walked with San Diego holding a 3-2 lead. AC/DC's "Hell's Bells" blared from the loudspeakers and Padre ace reliever Trevor Hoffman made his way in from the bullpen to a thunderous ovation from the Qual-comm crowd. I remembering thinking was a great moment there was--and there is Paul O'Neill on the video saying the same thing. That is good enough for me. It would be nice if it were longer, it would be nice if it had more, but that is always going to be true. The key thing as Yankee Fan Paul Simon would say, is to "preserve your memories." This tape certainly does that for me.
