Dickson Does It Again

Another home run of a book. Nobody writes about the national pastime and language better than Dickson.

A brilliant piece of entertaining scholarship

Dickson, with help from hundreds of eager baseball writers and scholars, has again produced a delightful, thorough and anecdotal volume of diamond terms ancient and timely. I've authored eight baseball history books myself, and I bow to Dickson's accomplishment. It's certainly a historically great contribution to the joys and learning of baseball.

Any Real Fan Must Have This Book

This marvelous compendium of baseball lore is a compelling read, filled with marvelous information of every kind.

This is an encyclopedic book. It covers everything. Fans will appreciate its breadth and depth and it can turn the curious spectator into a true fan. Great to have on hand during a game to follow the announcers' comments.

Best baseball book I've ever read.
