Fenway Saved is a lovingly drawn portrait, in text and photographs, of Boston’s fabled Fenway Park. It features interviews, essays, and the unique, never-before-published photographs by Mike Ross. Fenway Park, the oldest major league stadium in use today, has seen the exploits of many baseball greats, from early hero Babe Ruth to Ted Williams to today’s current crop of Red Sox superstars and their peers. With a movement under way to replace this cultural landmark, and a predictable counter-movement organized to save the park, this volume will certainly, in at least one sense, "save" Fenway.
