Ballpark: The Story of America's Baseball Fields

48 pp. | Atheneum | March, 2005 | Trade ISBN 0-689-86742-5 $17.95
(4) K-3 Curlee uses historical and present-day ballparks as place markers for memorable events in baseball. He chronicles both the modifications in the game and the fields upon which it is played, but despite the title, he gives more history of the game than information about baseball's "green cathedrals." The flat, acrylic drawings showcase places better than events or individuals. Bib.
