Roger Angell is now 93 years old. These books were written in the 1970’s and 1980’s I think. This trilogy is a must read for real baseball fans. The writing is excellent. Have your dictionary handy; Angell’s vocabulary is very rich. His baseball articles appeared in the New Yorker magazine for many years. In a recent New Yorker, there is a photo of now old man Angell with his little dog. The accompanying article is cleverly written on the theme of being old. This guy is a real American, New York treasure!
3 Great books, all wrapped up in one. All 3 r well written.
Great summer reading for the baseball fan or the fan of good writing. Actually, you wouldn’t have to limit yourself to summer.
If you baseball you have to read Roger Angell
If you like baseball in all its forms from the sandlot to the bigs, I think you’d like this collection. I encountered Roger Angell’s baseball writing in the columns he wrote for the New Yorker, but the essays collected in these books grouped here pretty much predate my acquaintance there. What I like best about his writing is the accessibility; he is a knowledgeable fan speaking to other fans, making connections and offering insights. Since he is covering years when I was a fan following baseball, the books offer me a pleasing revisiting of the past, but even if you weren’t of age to be actively engaged with the players and games he’s covering, if you’re buying this sort of book you’ll find his guidance pleasant.

Great book, great writing; Mr Angell loves baseball and it shines through his words.
A wonderful collection and a terrific price. Angell is a master of baseball writing. He takes you inside the game as he has gotten to know players, managers, scouts and front office executives. More than that, he writes from a fan’s perspective. He’s a student of the game who loves his subject. I had read these books previously in paper. I will read them again and again.
The Doyen of Diamond Diarists. E. B. White co-wrote the famous English handbook “The Elements of Styleâ€, and White’s stepson, Roger Angell, elegantly exemplifies excellent English style in his essays. To paraphrase former NFL coach Bum Phillips, among essayists, Angell may not be in a class by himself, but whatever class he’s in, it doesn’t take long to call the roll. His writings are profound without being pretentious and sophisticated without being cynical. He seeks to balance the roles of being a journalist and a fan and usually succeeds. Some of my favorite bits:* His essay on one of his favorite urban flowers.* “… that there is more Met than Yankee in every one of us. I knew for whom that foghorn blew; it blew for me.â€* The “War and Peace†of baseball.* “GOOD LUCK—Always, this is the identifying mark of a pennant winner.â€* Earl Weaver on why baseball is the greatest game of all.* Ray Dandridge’s Hall of Fame acceptance speech, “The only thing I ever wanted to do was to put one foot into the major leagues, but they didn’t want it. Now I can thank each and every veteran on the committee for allowing me to smell the roses… I love baseball, and today it looks like baseball loves me.â€In my Kindle edition, there are some typos. For example, the Mariners’ Alvin Davis is identified as Alan Davis and the Tigers’ Dan Petry is Dan Petty, but these are minor diamond flaws.
What a fabulous writer and opportunity to read this collection of his writings and musings on baseball
