TAILIEUCHUNG - The Locations of America’s Baseball Landmarks Second Edition

The book was originally dedicated to my “home team”: wife, Jean; son, Charlie; and daughter, Claire. Also to Richard “Dick” Davis of Chanute, Kansas. Dick’s tremendous heart and dedication toward recognizing and establishing the historic sites in Humboldt, Kansas, for Walter Johnson and George Sweatt only begin to tell the story. His passion for the history and glory of the game is matched only by his courage and sparkling optimism, and it is because of people like Dick (and his wife, Gloria) that a book like this can exist in the first place. Thank you, my friend. The game is better for having you here. It was also dedicated. | The Locations of America s Baseball Landmarks Second Edition Chris Epting Foreword by Joe Buck SANTA MONICA PRESS Copyright 2009 by Chris Epting All rights reserved.
