Right on, I can't wait to get my copy. The German book sounds compelling.

For anyone that is interested, another excellent book on the origin of ball games is "Ball, Bat, and Bishop: The Origin of Ball Games" by Robert W. Henderson. He focuses not only on baseball, but tennis and golf as well. Henderson provides information on the evolution of the game of baseball from stool ball -> rounders -> towne ball -> base ball. It reads very easy and is quite enjoyable.
