Leafing through any of the books that highlight all of the old (and usually long gone) stadiums with stories, run-downs, anecdotes, photographs, insider knowledge, etc., is a phenomenal ways to spend your time!!
Off the top of my head, these titles come to mind (and there are undoubtedly many more), and the more of them you have the merrier: Lost Ballparks America's Classic Ballparks Ballparks: Yesterday & Today Ballparks Then and Now Ballparks
