Great book. Some of the ballparks featured in the book don't exist anymore which makes it even more interesting.

This somewhat dated coffee table book takes a look at the modern ballparks of the major leagues and most importantly for me a pictorial look at the old ballparks of the past that I grew up seeing on TV and in person. Lots of great memories with brief histories included.
