Title: Baseball's creation myth
Description: "The story about baseball's being invented in Cooperstown, New York, in 1839 by Civil War hero Abner Doubleday seemed to prove America's national pastime was an American game, not derived from the English children's game of rounders as had been believed. This book provides a surprising answer about the origins of America's most durable myth"--Provided by publisher.
