Baseball Nut

I bought this book for my son for Christmas. It turns out that the entire family enjoyed it. We keep it on the coffee table in the living room and everyone is drawn to it and can't put it down once they start perusing it's pages! Great book of baseballs shrines and places everyone should take the time to see.

former minor leaguer gives it a THUMBS UP!

Okay, every man's dream is to visit as many ballparks as possible before we get the hook from the greatest coach in the sky. This book will help you plot your journey. What are you waiting for?

Must get to places!!!

This book is a must read for those who love to travel and see various sites that relate to the national pastime.

What a Fun Book

I just received a copy of this book a few days ago and I've really enjoyed looking at all of the colorful pictures and reading the interesting and sometimes funny essays. Some of the sites I'll visit (like the Field of Dreams Movie Site), others I think I'll skip (like the courthouse where Joe Jackson couldn't say it wasn't so) but it's fun learning about them all. Good book for a snowy day.
