Romancing the Horsehide: Baseball Poems on Players and the Game

Romancing the Horsehide: Baseball Poems on Players and the Game

Mike Schacht
4/5 ( ratings)
From the power of the home run to the grace of the fielder, these 120 baseball poems are a reminder of the emotional pull the game has on its fans. Most of the poems are tributes to individual players, including oldtimers , Negro league stars , and players from the modern era. Many of these are accompanied by brilliantly artful silhouettes of the players in action. Other poems describe specific aspects of the national pastime: the feel of the bat, the taste of the hot dog, the thrill of the squeeze play, the magic of opening day.
