Beskrivelse af Horseshoes
Horseshoes is a book written by Ring Lardner, an American journalist, short story writer, and sports enthusiast. The book is a collection of short stories that revolve around the sport of horseshoe pitching, which was a popular pastime in the early 20th century.The stories in the book are lighthearted and humorous, often poking fun at the characters and their eccentricities. The book features a diverse cast of characters, including farmers, businessmen, and even a traveling salesman, all of whom share a love for horseshoe pitching.Throughout the book, Lardner provides insights into the rules and strategies of the sport, as well as the culture and social dynamics of the time. He also explores themes such as competition, friendship, and the pursuit of success.Overall, Horseshoes is an entertaining and informative read for anyone interested in the history of horseshoe pitching or early 20th-century American culture.I had met Grimes one day during the spring he was with the Cubs, but I knew he wouldn't remember me. A ball player never recalls a reporter's face on less than six introductions or his name on less than twenty. However, I resolved to speak to him, and had just mustered sufficient courage to open a conversation when he saved me the trouble. ""Whose picture have they got there?"" he asked, pointing to my paper.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
