Myron J. Smith, Jr., is a library director and professor of history at Tusculum College in Greeneville, Tennessee.
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. Dennis Dillon, Univ. of Texas Libs. at Austin
