EVERS, John J. and Hugh S. Fullerton

Touching Second: The Science of Baseball

First edition. Cloth with applied photographic illustration. Corners a bit worn, and the usual heavy rubbing to the cover illustration, a very good copy lacking the rare dustwrapper. A solid copy of this "how-to" book for boys by the second baseman made famous in the "Tinkers-to-Evers-to-Chance" double play combination. Illustrated with photos of various baseball greats, including Evers, Frank Chance, Ty Cobb, Honus Wagner, Nap Lajoie, Christy Mathewson, Walter Johnson, "Home Run" Baker and others showing how it's done. Later re-issued as Baseball in the Big Leagues.
