ONE NATION UNDER BASEBALL: HOW THE SIXTIES COLLIDED WITH THE NATIONAL PASTIME
Book ID/图书代码： 06840015B84765
English Summary/英文概要： One Nation Under Baseball highlights the intersection between American society and America’s pastime during the 1960s, when the hallmarks of the sport—fairness, competition, and mythology—came under scrutiny. John Florio and Ouisie Shapiro examine the events of the era that reshaped the game: the Koufax and Drysdale million-dollar holdout, the encroachment of television on newspaper coverage, the changing perception of ballplayers from mythic figures to overgrown boys, the arrival of the everyman Mets and their free-spirited fans, and the lawsuit brought against team owners by Curt Flood.
One Nation Under Baseball brings to life the seminal figures of the era—including Bob Gibson, Marvin Miller, Tom Seaver, and Dick Young—richly portraying their roles during a decade of flux and uncertainty.
Chinese Summary/中文概要： 《棒球国度》聚焦20世纪60年代美国社会于美国消遣娱乐活动之间的交集，当时，运动所标榜的公平、竞争、和传奇性受到人们的审视。约翰•弗洛里奥和维西•夏皮罗对这一时期重新定义了棒球这一体育运动的历史时间进行了详细地调研：柯法斯与德莱斯戴尔的百万美元大抗议，电视对报纸内容的蚕食鲸吞，棒球运动员从神秘传奇人物到大男孩形象的认知改变，纽约大都会队的出现及其无拘无束的球迷，以及柯特•弗拉徳起诉球队老板。
《棒球国度》将鲜活再现这一时期的核心棒球人物——其中包括鲍勃•吉布森，马文•米勒，汤姆•西弗，迪克•杨等，本书将用丰富的笔触描绘他们在那一个动荡而又混乱年代的球场所扮演的角色。（DC）
Awards/获奖情况："《棒球国度》一书审视了20世纪60年代棒球运动所遇到的动荡与混乱如何为今日这一运动的发展现状种下种子。一再重复的主题无疑是棒球运动员们为获取更高收入而不断进行的斗争。1966年，劳工律师马文•米勒受雇领导运动员联盟时，除了向法院提交文件，其他一切几乎都已经结束：柯特•弗拉徳一案所涉及的棒球保留条款将最终导致自由机构的出现。在这部优秀的观察作品中，本书还将涉及种族关系及其他社会问题，同时不乏那个年代最令人难忘的球队、运动员及体育事件。” ——丹尼尔•M•戈德，《纽约时报》，2017-04-02

"One Nation Under Baseball . . . looks at how the turmoil of the 1960s sowed the seeds for today’s game. A recurrent theme is ballplayers’ fight for higher wages, and when the labor lawyer Marvin Miller was hired in 1966 to lead the players’ union, it was all over but the court filing: The Curt Flood case taking on baseball’s reserve clause would eventually lead to free agency. This excellent read also covers race relations and other social issues, as well as the decade’s most memorable teams, players and events."—Daniel M. Gold, New York Times(Daniel M. Gold New York Times 2017-04-02)
