From the rear cover
With Baseball: The Golden Age, Dr. Harold Seymour--the man whom Sports Illustrated has called 'the Edward gibbon of baseball history'--continues his monumental multi-volume study of the sport. This second volume explores the both glorious and grievous era when the game truly captured the American imagination with such legendary figures at Ty Cobb and Babe Ruth and also appalled fans with startling scandals. Beginning with the formation of the two major leagues in 1903, Seymour examines the changes in the organization of professional baseball from an unwieldy three-man commission to the strong one-man rule of Judge Kenesaw Mountain Landis.
