Synopsis
Start with a text by former presidential speechwriter and Red Sox fan Curt Smith. Add Bill Goff's superb lithographs, the most beautiful depiction ever of Boston's Fenway Park. Combine these with vivid color pictures by some of America's best photographers showing Fenway Park before and during a game up close and personal, alongside essays by prominent writers, broadcasters, players, and politicians. The result: Our House: A Day at Fenway Park, the most lyrical and complete book ever published on this beloved park.
Our House details the highest deeds and lowest comedy of Fenway Park from its opening day-April 20, 1912, during the week the Titanic sank -- through today. This superb work on America's parish park includes the history, dramatic moments, household names, and soaring memories of a place millions consider an extended part of the family.
