{"product_id":"old-time-baseball-harvey-frommer-9781589792548","title":"Old Time Baseball: America's Pastime in the Gilded Age","description":"In this delightful history of the sport, Frommer captures the flavor, smell, and craziness of the early days of baseball. Starting with its invention in 1842 by the descendant of a British sea captain (and not Abner Doubleday), Frommer traces the development of the sport from the first games on a vacant lot at 27th and Madison in New York to the turn of the century, when the National League was emerging as the preeminent forum for truly professional baseball.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Harvey Frommer\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 1589792548\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9781589792548\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Taylor Trade Publishing\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 12\/22\/2005\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 224\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Hardcover\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 0.86lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 8.74h x 5.74w x 0.95d\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eReview Citation(s): \u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003ci\u003ePublishers Weekly\u003c\/i\u003e 12\/12\/2005 pg. 53","brand":"Harvey Frommer","offers":[{"title":"Hardcover","offer_id":43939831480575,"sku":"9781589792548","price":22.95,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/products\/img_b8ef03c6-6e04-4570-b19d-08ab771b169b.jpg?v=1681443745","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/old-time-baseball-harvey-frommer-9781589792548","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
