Reviews

An interesting inside look at the character and camaraderie created and shared by the community of Wrigley regulars. --NINE Wrigley Regulars provides a very sophisticated analysis of community and then examines it using a provocative, compelling, and unusual case study about baseball. Because baseball is so deeply entrenched in American history and culture, Holly Swyers's case study has broad appeal. --Robert Elias, author of The Empire Strikes Out: How Baseball Sold U.S. Foreign Policy and Promoted the American Way Abroad
