Fathers Playing Catch with Sons: Essays on Sport (Mostly Baseball) - Donald Hall - Mass Market Paperback

In the pantheon of great sports literature, not a few poets have tried their hand at paying tribute to their love affair with the game -- Walt Whitman, Marianne Moore, and William Carlos Williams among them. This elegant volume collects Donald Hall's prose about sports, concentrating on baseball but extending to basketball, football and Ping-Pong. The essays are a wonderful mixture of reminiscence and observation, of baseball and of fathers and sons, of how a game binds people together and bridges generations.Hall, Donald is the author of 'Fathers Playing Catch with Sons: Essays on Sport (Mostly Baseball) - Donald Hall - Mass Market Paperback' with ISBN 9780440324386 and ISBN 0440324386.
