The book is a collection of 100 short Sports Illustrated style essays of about 250 words each. Each essay is accompanied by a usually great relevant quotation and a very good and sometimes extraordinary photograph. The editors of Sports Illustrated did a great job of providing a history of baseball in a nutshell, especially if you are already familiar with the game.

This is the fourth book in the "My First Book of..." series. It uses photographs of soccer players, cartoon drawings of a girl and boy, and speech bubbles to explain the sport of soccer in a easy to understand way. The photos are full-colour action shots of both men and women's soccer teams. Each page describes a particular part of the game, such as a position or a rule. Some of the commentary in the bubbles are cute jokes that will amuse the reader. A good book to use with a group of young children learning about soccer whether in a school for a physical education class or a community group. The publisher generously provided a copy of this book via Netgalley.… (more)

The Story of Baseball in 100 Photographs of course includes some superb photography and some truly iconic images of the game, though there are a number that are somewhat pedestrian and/or spotlight merely tangential elements of baseball. An extended caption accompanies each photo. For knowledgeable fans, there’s little revelatory here, but it would serve as a nice primer for those relatively new to the sport.
