Stuff I Like – Under the March Sun: The Story of Spring Training by Charles Fountain

 

I am not a huge baseball book fan but I do recommend Under the March Sun. it is a neat book about the history of spring training.

Lots of interesting background historical detail.

If you like baseball it is a really good read. While I am on baseball I may as well finish off the baseball books I believe are worth reading. These are in no particular order. All are interesting and well written.
