Book description
This is an interesting book for several reasons. It is 125 years old but still retains useful information about the sport of baseball and how to play it. That being said if you wanted to play baseball and learn all about the rules and techniques of the game I wouldnt imagine any coach recommending this book. Not because it is terrible, but because it is 125 years old. The rules may not have changed significantly but the way it is played most definitely has.It is interesting from a historical point of view, to see how the game was played and attitudes towards it in 1888. Generally I think it has aged well, however in places it really shows its age. Particularly in chapters named Theory of the game. A chapter for the ladies and then goes on to talk about how a lady watching the game is surprised and flattered by the wonderful grasp of her own understandingThe book is not the sort you read cover to cover necessarily but has chapters divided into different positions on the field. Chapter V is The First Baseman Chapter VI is The Second Baseman and so on through all the positions on the field. I dont play baseball myself but I imagine these chapters would still be useful to a player of those positions.A curiosity that would make good reading for a baseball fan (particularly if they dont know much about the sport)
