Base Ball & Cracker Jack: A Prized Story - Paperback

by Erik Varon (Author)

The start of the twentieth century saw growth, reform and conflict. America's Pastime mimicked the changes taking place in society as baseball introduced the dawn of the Dead-ball Era. But within the baseball experience, something extraordinary was about to take place: a bond between the well-established confection, Cracker Jack, and the game of baseball began to take shape. Follow along as this Prized Story negotiated conflicts such as a competing Federal League and a World War, intertwining forever by the 1908 hit song, "Take Me Out to the Ball Game."
