About This Item
Place_Pub: New York: Macmillan Publishing Co, 1980. First Printing. very good, fair to good. 290, illus., sources, index, red dot top edge, small stain bottom edge, some wear & edge tears to DJ edges, DJ somewhat soiled. Stripped of its talent by the armed forces, beset by home-front hardships, and driven to patriotic ballyhoo by fears it would be banned as a wasteful frivolity, war-era baseball bordered on the ridiculous.
