A "must have" if you love Ballparks!

If you love ballparks then this book has got to be in your book collection. It's a huge book, (you'll need an extra large coffee table once you've opened it up), crammed with wonderful aerial and panoramic views of old and new ballparks. The quality of some photos is better than others and there are numerous mistakes in some of the text but that doesn't detract from the fact that most of the panoramic shots are of the jaw-dropping variety. What helps this book is that the pictures are so large. I hate those ballpark books where you see a stadium from above and it's the size of a postage stamp and it's also blurred. If you're looking for a history of these parks, then this book isn't for you. Just enjoy opening up the book and make believe you actually are sitting in Fenway, Wrigley, PNC and Yankee Stadium. A visual treat!

Best gift for your favorite ballpark junkie!

Great BIG book....with lots of color pictures of ballparks past and present.... the perfect gift for the right person....

a must for all baseball fan...

Superbe livre. Tout amateur de baseball se doit de l'avoir dans sa bibliothèque.

So nice to see a book like this

This is such a wonderful book. The photos, the colors, it took me back to my childhood. While it was given to me as a gift, I should have bought it before. If you are looking for a gift for that baseball nut you have in your family, get them this book. You will not go wrong and they will love you for it.
