Overview

America's love affair with baseball began more than 100 years ago and is still going strong. Here are the game's finest, most amazing, and most heartbreaking moments. This volume guides readers through the highlights of baseball history via a stunning gallery of over 400 photos. Photos and text bring little-known details to life. From Babe Ruth's inaugural homerun at the new Yankee Stadium to Hank Aaron's lifetime home run record in 1974, from Bill Wambsganns' unassisted triple play in 1920 to Willie Mays' over-the-shoulder catch 30 years later, from Lou Gehrig Day, July 4, 1939 to the thrill of the 1998 home run race, these moments -- and many more -- chronicle baseball's greatest conquests and defeats, its triumphs, heartaches, and joys.
