0/5 ( ratings)

A chronicle of the unique relationship between Farmington, New Mexico -- "The Amateur Baseball Capital of the World" -- and the national pastime that resulted in a baseball stadium entirely built by volunteer labor and the town hosting the Connie Mack World Series every year since 1965. The book is of interest to baseball fans as well as anyone interested in the limitless possibilities of the American civic spirit. Included are short sidebars on talent scouts, the Connie Mack Queen, and other interesting tidbits, plus "Ricketts Park Remembrances" from locals who have been part of the tournament's grand history. An appendix provides year-by-year results and all-tournament teams, and a player register of all tournament participants.
