In the post-Second World War era, the Brooklyn Dodgers baseball team had a unique and very powerful relationship with the entire Brooklyn community, a relationship that was abruptly terminated when the Dodgers left Brooklyn and moved to Los Angeles. The book brilliantly describes this intense cultural and community connection of Brooklyn with its baseball team.
