Apie šią el. knygą
This essay collection covers more than forty years of history, fandom, and insider analysis from “the best baseball writer of our time—maybe ever” (Newsweek)
The celebrated baseball chronicler has selected his favorite pieces from the last forty years to create Once More Around the Park, a definitive volume of his most memorable work. Here are the extraordinary games Roger Angell has witnessed and written about, as well as compelling insights that deepen our love and understanding of the sport.
This book includes such timeless essays as “The Interior Stadium,” on the complex attractions of baseball; “In the Country,” on a friendship that began with a fan letter and took Angell far from the big stadiums and big money; “The Arms Talks,” on contemporary pitching strategy and the arrival of the split-finger delivery; and many others.
Angell’s conversations with past and present players and managers, scouts and coaches, rookies and Hall of Famers enhance his expertise and critical appreciation, defining him as “baseball’s most eloquent analyst” (The New York Times Book Review).
