The definitive work on the language of baseball—one of the “Five Best Baseball Books” (Wall Street Journal). Hailed as “a staggering piece of scholarship” (Wall Street Journal) and “an indispensable guide to the language of baseball” (San Diego Union-Tribune), The Dickson Baseball Dictionary has become an invaluable resource for those who love the game. Drawing on dozens of nineteenth- and early twentieth-century periodicals, as well as contemporary sources, Dickson’s brilliant, illuminating definitions trace the earliest appearances of terms both well known and obscure. This edition includes more than 10,000 terms with 18,000 individual entries, and more than 250 photos. This “impressively comprehensive” (The Nation) book will delight everyone from the youngest fan to the hard-core aficionado.

This is the most comprehensive bibliography of baseball literature available, updating and expanding "Anton Grobani's Guide to the Literature of Baseball" (1975). The 21,000 citations are arranged by subject classifications. There are sections on the World Series, baseball cards, business aspects, the minor leagues, each of the teams, and a biographical section covering those connected with the game. Annotations are provided for many entries. There is an author index, title index, and information on obtaining difficult to locate material, including addresses. Based on research at the National Baseball Library in Cooperstown, N.Y., this work by a professional bibliographer will be the cornerstone of baseball research for the next decade.
