Synopsis

Featuring a foreword by best-selling author and New England native Stephen King, this homage to baseball's oldest ballpark — the first to reach its 100th anniversary — details the life of a place whose history in the sport is unparalleled. Just as Fenway Park's famous elements — from Duffy's Cliff of yesteryear to the Pesky Pole, the Green Monster and Yawkey Way — define its character, so too has a century of Fenway Park tradition left an enduring mark upon Red Sox Nation and America's pastime. Its story is one of incredible baseball highlights, 100 years of other sports, entertainment and civic events, and the 21st-century commitment by a new group of owners to save and improve the ballpark for future generations. With more than 250 lavishly illustrated pages and hundreds of compelling images, Fenway Park: 100 Years is the only official Fenway retrospective produced and published by the Boston Red Sox and Major League Baseball — an all access pass to the ballpark's past, present and future...
