Touching Base by Steven A. Riess PDF Summary

Book Description: The revised and expanded edition of Touching Base examines the myths, realities, symbols, and rituals of America's national pastime.

Focusing on Atlanta, New York, and Chicago, Riess looks at all the participants--from spectators to owners to players--in analyzing how baseball both influenced and mirrored broader society.
