Koppett's Concise History provides an overview and explanation of all the major events and personalities that made baseball America's national game. How baseball as business affects the nature of the game is an issue throughout the book. Whether he is talking about free agency, strike actions, or the policies of different commissioners and owners, Koppett is never afraid to say whose interests are being served.
A major portion of each chapter is devoted to Koppett's lively narratives of the shape and significance of each season from 1892 through 1995. On each point, Koppett has the facts, the stories, and an opinion about what works for the game and what does not.
