Description
Since it opened in 1912, Fenway Park has become an iconic destination for baseball fans everywhere and a source of great civic pride for generations of New Englanders. Home to the Boston Red Sox-as well as many important non-baseball events over the decades-it is consistently among the most visited and toured sports arenas in the country. Published in association with the Boston Globe, Fenway Park is the product of an all-star cast of writers, photographers, and baseball historians. It includes more than 250 classic and never-before published photographs, a removable poster featuring the rare blueprints of Fenway's historic 1931 renovation, a double gatefold of Fenway's famous Green Monster, a foreword by Jim Lonborg, and a special introduction by former Globe publisher Benjamin Taylor. With a decade-by-decade narrative detailing the remarkable history of the Red Sox-plus over 100 intriguing illustrated sidebars covering memorable events like concerts, political rallies, papal visits, people profiles, and much more-Fenway Park is a collector's item as well as the perfect gift for any fan of baseball or Boston.
