From National Book Award winner Martin W. Sandler and his son, a fascinating look at the intersection of baseball and society in America on the eve of World War II.

In 1941, as America stood on the brink of World War II, the country was in sore need of a diversion at home. They found exactly that on the baseball diamond, where the rivalry between the Brooklyn Dodgers and the New York Yankees captivated fans as superstars Ted Williams and Joe DiMaggio went head to head, breaking every record imaginable.

But the pastime known as "America's game" wasn't really a game that welcomed everyone: Black citizens were segregated into the widely dismissed Negro Leagues, and though women had played baseball for years, they struggled for acceptance and to establish a professional league of their own. As the country reached a turning point, so, too, did the sport of baseball--and after 1941, neither would ever be the same.

Through extensive archival photographs and thrilling accounts of the game and the country that became obsessed with it, Martin W. Sandler and Craig Sandler vividly portray the season that would change baseball forever.

Light and works with no eye stinging.
Scent: White Tea, Size: 1.7 Fl Oz (Pack of 1)
I love this sunscreen. I wear co tact’s and most sunscreen ends ups burning my eyes. This does not! It has a nice cucumber smell and it’s not sticky or heavy. By far the best face sunscreen that’s light, smells nice, doesn’t burn my eyes and works.

My all time fave sunscreen!
Scent: Fragrance Free, Size: 1.7 Fl Oz (Pack of 1)
This is the best sunscreen! Does NOT burn my eyes like 95% of other sunscreens do. Does NOT break out my sensitive skin, or my sister who has the most sensitive skin ever! It goes on smoothly due to its nice texture, does NOT feel greasy. Wears great under foundation as well. Thank you Coola for such a great formula at an affordable price. I have turned so many 'sunscreen snobs' into fan favorites of this as well. If you haven't tried it, you should!

good for non-white skin
Scent: Fragrance Free, Size: 1.7 Fl Oz (Pack of 1)
Moisturizing, non-sticky, works for my sensitive skin. It's transparent and doesn't leave a white cast on my light brown skin. Smallish size is good for travel and purse. It's a little shiny; wish it came in matte.

Very effective
Scent: Fragrance Free, Size: 1.7 Fl Oz (Pack of 1)
I love this sunscreen for your face. It doesn’t feel oily. It doesn’t stay white on your skin. It absorbs and it really protects it nicely. I put it on every morning before I walk my dog in the sun and I’m out for normally at least an hour so it’s a really nice sunscreen and I would definitely give it a try.

Lightweight, clean, and effective — worth the repurchase
Scent: White Tea, Size: 1.7 Fl Oz (Pack of 1)
This is my go-to daily sunscreen. It’s lightweight, non-greasy, and absorbs quickly without leaving a white cast. I love that it’s made with clean ingredients and doesn’t irritate my sensitive skin. The white tea scent is subtle and fresh. I’ve repurchased this several times now — it’s one of the few sunscreens I actually enjoy using.
