The New York Timesbestselling history of America's most beloved baseball stadium, Wrigley Field, and the Cubs centurylong search for World Series gloryIn A Nice Little Place on the North Side, leading columnist George Will returns to baseball with a deeply personal look at his hapless Chicago Cubs and their often beatified home, Wrigley Field, as it enters its second century. Baseball, Will argues, is full of metaphors for life, religion, and happiness, and Wrigley is considered one of its sacred spaces. But what is its true, hyperbolefree history?Winding beautifully like Wrigleys iconic ivy, Wills meditation on The Friendly Confines examines both the unforgettable stories that forged the fields legend and the largerthanlife charactersfrom Wrigley and Ruth to Veeck, Durocher, and Bankswho brought it glory, heartbreak, and scandal. Drawing upon his trademark knowledge and inimitable sense of humor, Will also explores his childhood connections to the team, the Cubs future, and what keeps longsuffering fans rooting for the home team after so many years of futility.In the end, A Nice Little Place on the North Side is more than just the history of a ballpark. It is the story of Chicago, of baseball, and of America itself.
