Book First Edition
Hardcover. Condition: Very good. Dust Jacket Condition: Very good. Presumed First Edition, First printing. xiv, 258 pages. Illustrations. Acknowledgments; Author's Notes; Foreword; Introduction Section I: In the Past; Section II: On the Hill; Section III: Around Town and Beyond; Section IV: Personalities; Section V: On and Off the Field; Epilogue: The Legacy of Jimmy Trimble; and Index. James Cleveland Roberts (born August 9, 1946) is the President of the American Studies Center, a non-profit foundation founded in 1978 and currently headquartered in Arlington, Virginia. In 1985, Roberts founded Radio America, a news/talk network that now has more than 700 affiliates nationwide and more than 7 million listeners. In 1995, Roberts founded the American Veterans Center, an organization "honoring the sacrifice and guarding the legacy of America's veterans." The AVC supports a wide range of programs including organizing the National Memorial Day Parade in Washington, DC, a national conference, several educational efforts and an oral history program and a quarterly publication, American Valor Quarterly. Roberts has written two books: The Conservative Decade, and Hardball on the Hill: Baseball Stories from the Nation's Capital. He has also edited two books and authored several monographs. His articles have appeared in numerous publications including The New York Times, The Wall Street Journal, The Washington Times, The Washington Post, the Los Angeles Times, Human Events, National Review, ESPN, and Naval History. Roberts has served on two presidential commissions, the White House Conference on Library and Information Exchange and the White House Commission on Remembrance. . A celebration of the long and rich history of baseball in Washington, DC, this work chronicles how, in 1899, the Nationals became the Senators, and this book surveys the history of the team that boasted some of the greatest names in the game, including Connie Mack, Walter Johnson, and Harmon Killebrew. Despite this, for 70 years, Washington was, as the old saw had it, "first in war, first in peace, and last in the American League." This book also examines the unique relationship between presidents and baseball, the long and intense rivalry of the congressional baseball game, and minor league baseball in the area. Washington, DC has been home to over a dozen baseball organizations since 1872 and is currently represented by the Washington Nationals. Washington was continuously home to a major league baseball team from 1901 until 1971. Two separate franchises alternated between the nicknames "Senators" and "Nationals" and sometimes used the names interchangeably. The American League Washington Nationals/Senators (1901-1960): The team was officially named the "Senators" from 1901-1904, the "Nationals" from 1905-1955 and the Senators again from 1956-1960 but nonetheless was commonly referred to as the Senators throughout its history (and unofficially as the "Grifs" during Clark Griffith's tenure as manager from 1912-1920). In 1961, this team moved to Minneapolis-St. Paul and became the Minnesota Twins. The American League Washington Senators (1961-1971): This expansion team began play in Washington immediately following the departure of the former franchise. In 1972, this team moved to Dallas-Fort Worth and became the Texas Rangers. Two other teams also competed in Washington during this time period. The United States Baseball League Washington Senators (1912): This club was unrelated to the American League team and the new league folded after one month of operation. The Negro National League Homestead Grays (1930-1948): Though officially based on Homestead, Pennsylvania, this club played many of its games in Washington and were informally known as the "Washington Homestead Grays." When baseball returned to Washington in 2005, "Grays" was one of the three finalists for the team's nickname.
