Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A FULL COLOR EDITION!! As modern day demonstrations of "Vintage Base Ball" continue to spread, so do the gentlemanly discussions of how best to present the American Pastime from its earliest days, in 1858 to 1869. From tally bells to no sliding, feeder pitching to base stealing, National Association rules to Home Field rules, there is a lot for today's player to sort through. We hope this guide will help you understand some of base ball history, so you, too, can enjoy the game as it was played in the 19th century; gain knowledge about what is historically accurate; and understand what was added by modern vintage players, so you can talk to the spectators about it.
