Take Time for Paradise: Americans and Their Games | Jon Meacham, A. Bartlett Giamatti

Mehso-so

With A. Bartlett Giamatti being a baseball commissioner, this book may be short in appearance but fantastically long in meaning and significance. A great read for sport (and non sport) enthusiasts as it calls to mind the way Americans view the popular game in a philosophical and realistic matter. It truly highlights the greatest game ever played. Be forewarned, it can be kind of slow in the beginning. ⚾️🏈⚽️
