Default New Book on History of Baseball

Posted By: barrysloate

I can divulge it, it's not a secret, but it is a very long title: Spiele zur Uebung und Erholung des Korpers und Geistes fur die Jugend, ihre Erzieher und alle Freunde Unschuldiger Jugendfreuden. (whew) It translates: Games for the exercise and recreation of body and spirit for the youth and his educator and all his friends of innocent joys of youth. It is by Johann Christoph Friedrich Gutsmuths, 1796. There's a mouthful for you.
