Description
“I read this entire book! Baseball inspires a religious devotion for me and its many followers.
This book by Paul Goldberger gives incredible new insights into the cathedrals at which we love to
worship it. I am so grateful for it. Thank you, Paul.― —Jerry Seinfeld'As a Pulitzer
Prize–winning architecture critic, Paul Goldberger brings scholarship and a discerning eye to
these pages. He also brings a thoughtful fanâ€s appreciation of baseballâ€s unique appeal
and romance. Qualities which are enhanced, or diminished, by ballpark design.' —Bob Costas
“Offers a concise history of major-league ballparks, from the earliest wooden structures to the
present . . . Flip to the sections on your favorite parks and youâ€ll find surprising tidbits on
nearly every page, [but] the book also mounts a sustained argument across its pages, which
makes reading it end to end equally rewarding . . . Lushly illustrated.― —John Swansburg,
The New York Times Book Review“Both a beautifully illustrated history of North American
baseball stadiums and a defense of the simple but enduring idea of a ballpark that fits neatly into
the hum and hive of a grid of city streets . . . Goldberger has an easy way with his descriptions,
and his analyses of various ballparks are done with clarity and wit. The book is studded with
insightful observations.― —Michael Lindgren, The Washington Post'There has never been a
book on a sports subject that approaches a subject through the historical designs of its playing
fields or, surely, does it as well. Through his architectural expertise and with compelling writing
skills, Paul Goldberger in Ballpark: Baseball in the American City takes the reader into arenas
that embrace unique and pleasurable insights of what is commonly referred to as our national
pastime.' —Ira Berkow“[An] entertaining, insightful account of the places that house the
national pastime . . . One of the most engaging books to be written on either cities or baseball in
the past decade . . . The emotional resonance of Ballpark is a testament to Goldbergerâ€s
thoughtfulness.― —Josh Stephens, Planetizen  “Excellent . . . thought-provoking . . .
[with] sumptuous photos and illustrations.― —Whitney Terrell, Literary Hub“Highly
informed and interesting . . . An invaluable book, with delicious stories and insights into both
baseball and urban studies. —Richard Horwich, The East Hampton Star“For all of the
writing about baseball, no one before has accomplished what the brilliant architecture critic Paul
Goldberger does in Ballpark. In illuminating detail, he shows how the places where the game is
played say as much about the sport and the changing American aesthetic as wins and losses and
managers and owners and players.― —David Maraniss, Pulitzer prize–winning author of
Clemente: The Passion and Grace of Baseball's Last Hero“A well-illustrated and eminently

readable history of this un
