You have probably heard Ernest Thayer's famous poem before.  But the new illustrations by Joe Morse updates the poem to a contemporary locale.  Set in a city surrounded by chain link fences and tall rise buildings, the look and feel of the story becomes edgier and angrier.
SUBJECTS:     Baseball -- Poetry.
                        American poetry.
