Dugouts and Dreams is a book written by Frank C. Tillson. It is a memoir that tells the story of Tillson's experience as a baseball player during the early 20th century. The book is divided into chapters that chronicle Tillson's life, from his childhood in rural America to his time playing minor league baseball in the Midwest. Tillson's story is one of perseverance and determination. He faced numerous challenges throughout his career, including prejudice and discrimination, but he never gave up on his dream of playing professional baseball. Along the way, he met many interesting characters, both on and off the field, and he shares their stories with the reader. The book is also a fascinating look at the history of baseball during this time period. Tillson provides insights into the game's early days, including the development of the sport and the evolution of the rules. He also discusses the impact of World War I on baseball, as many players were drafted into the military and the game was forced to adapt to new circumstances. Overall, Dugouts and Dreams is an engaging and informative read for anyone interested in the history of baseball or the experiences of early 20th-century athletes. Tillson's writing is lively and engaging, and his story is sure to inspire readers of all ages.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
