Book Description
This copyright protected translation of a work, published in 1891 in German and printed in Fraktur (a particular font widely used in the nineteenth century Germanic literature), is the first in the world at the time of its publication. This historical novel, a classic of the nineteenth-century romantic literature, exhibits, through a fictional plot, different aspects of the enigmatic nature of King Ludwig II of Bavaria. It exposes, based on actual events, a woman writer’s point of view, a contemporary poet of this monarch. Johanna BALTZ could therefore figure out the profound motives of this genuine Art Patron that king Ludwig II was. Indeed, reading these fictitious letters that the king could have actually written, one gets a more accurate picture of the psychological portrait of this exceptional man that many historians have tried to portray without success.

America's National Game
Author: Albert G. Spalding
Publisher: Jazzybee Verlag
ISBN: 3849658724
Category : Sports & Recreation
Languages : en
Pages : 466
Book Description
This book is in great demand by baseball enthusiasts. Having been connected with every department of the game from player to magnate, Mr. Spalding has contributed a very important work to the game's history. As the invincible pitcher of the Boston Club, previous to the formation of the National League, his book of so many pages is an interesting record of events dating from the beginning of the great American pastime. It is not exactly a history of the game, but deals largely with incidents during the author's career, who was a player in the late 1860s and early 1870s, and helped organize the National League in 1876. One chapter, devoted to sundry topics, gives an account of the sale of the immortal "King Kelly," the original "$10,000 beauty," by Chicago to the Boston Club in the late 1880s. Other Chapters are devoted to the literature of the game, quoting several instances of the baseball paragrapher's art and also specimens of the distinct poetry of the pastime, of which "Casey at the Bat" is probably the most widely known. The Cincinnati Red Stockings Mr. Spalding gives credit as being the pioneer professional organization. It was not, however, until 1871 that professional baseball playing, as recognized today, was instituted. Mr. Spalding shows how cricket could not do for Americans. He says it is suitable for the British temperament, but not for the Yankee hustling spirit. He also tells how he worked into the game through a one-handed catch when a small boy. To lovers of baseball, whose name is legion, and whose number increases yearly, this book comprises in itself a whole library of useful information.
