Product Description
Few teams in any sport have as rich a history and as deep a connection with its fans as the World Series champion Philadelphia Phillies. This official commemorative history digs deep into the archives to celebrate over a century of Phillies baseball, from the first game in 1883 through the team’s triumphant world championship run. Original essays by Hall of Famers, current Phillies heroes, and a cast of unforgettable characters including players, managers, broadcasters, and baseball’s most die-hard fans offer insights and anecdotes, transporting readers onto the field and behind the scenes. With more than 300 photos chronicling everything from ballparks old and new to the evolution of the uniforms to the team’s greatest names, games, and moments, The Philadelphia Phillies is a must-have keepsake for Phillies and baseball fans everywhere.

This book is really great. I especially like all the pop outs and the fact that it ranges fromearly 1900s to the present.


5 out of 5 stars Extraordinary Photos   July 18, 2010

It's never made sense that publishers of books about baseball, baseball players, baseball teams, etc., seem so blind about baseball photos. This book turns that practice upside-down, with not simply an abundance of photos, but a collection and selection so beautifully done, it's breath-taking. That the photos are so faithfully reproduced is the icing on a great cake. The research for and the collecting of these rarely-seen images must have been very challenging, but for the readers, it's a walk-off grand slam. High-fives and a cream pie in the face (that's a good thing).
