Description: Cover features Vero Beach sandlot. Highlights: Subtitled "Other Fields, Other Leagues," this issue features Larry Baldassaro's interview with Phil Garner, Robert Dodge's hilarious fictional work "The Penis," Nick Trujillo's clever "Five Reasons Why Nolan Ryan Should Not Be Elected to the Hall of Fame," and several historical accounts, including Paul Gertsen's look at the defunct Northern League Aberdeen Pheasants, Robert Cole's "The Last Days of Baseball Barnstorming" (with a focus on Jackie Robinson and Willie Mays), and Sheldon Cohen & Jim Keenan on "Jimmie Crutchfield's Baseball World." Poetry includes "The Saliva Series," "Until the Lights Go Out," and ‘Minor League Wives," and our "Baseball by the Books" section includes Peter Bjarkman's review of the recent (overdue) spate of books on the Negro Leagues, as well as book reviews of When the Game Was Black and White, Billy Sunday and Big-Time American Evangelism, Past the Bleachers, and Coming Apart at the Seams. Volume 13, Number 1. Length: 112 pages. Note: From 1992 through 2008, Elysian Fields Quarterly was the pre-eminent journal of baseball literature and culture--a beautiful 6x9 perfect-bound publication packed with articles, essays, poetry, fiction, book reviews, humor, fantasy lineups, quirky illustrations, and a great deal more. Like its predecessor, The Minneapolis Review of Baseball, EFQ featured contributors ranging from accomplished academics to first-time writers, and forged a special niche among readers that wasn't dependent on mainstream sportswriters or pundits to give it credibility. Although the publication went on hiatus in 2008, perhaps a comeback might still be around the corner. Issue is in new condition, leftover from unsold original inventory.
