Title: Essential for real understanding of the American language.
Product review: The "New Dickson Baseball Dictionary" is more than just "new". Its 7,000 entries (compared with 5,000 in the original Dickson dictionary published 10 years ago) include all that Dickson overlooked, forgot, missed, muffed and fumbled his first time at bat. It also includes a lot of words that came in play in recent years. If you know a foreigner who is studying American English, this book is a great gift, for it is truly a key to the American language. As Dickson makes so clear, nothing has given so much color, flavor and uniqueness to the American language as baseball.
