This book is thorough, covering all the rules from the most basic to the most obtuse. Easy-to-use, it is designed to facilitate quick and intuitive searches. The guide offers several tools to help navigate through the thicket of information, including a logical sequence of topics, a helpful table of contents, a comprehensive index, and richly cross-referenced information. The breadth and depth of The Baseball Field Guide will satisfy the most dedicated fan's interest in details and minutia, offering hours of random browsing as a source of entertainment. This is a necessary resource for any fan, an excellent gift for those who have followed baseball for years, or for those who have just discovered the game.
