Synopsis
A blend of the absurd and the tragic lies at the heart of this immortal baseball ballad, and this splendid edition features 56 pen-and-ink drawings that perfectly capture its ironic tone and comic spirit. An Introduction by Martin Gardner traces the poem's remarkable history from its 1888 publication to modern times.

About the Author
An undergraduate contributor to the Harvard Lampoon, Ernest Lawrence Thayer (1863-1940) took his satiric talents to the San Francisco Examiner at the invitation of his former classmate, William Randolph Hearst. "Casey at the Bat" made its first appearance under a pseudonym in an 1888 issue of the Examiner.
