متن يادداشت

"This work focuses on the baseball movie genre in the years following World War II, beginning with the 1948 biopic The Babe Ruth Story and ending with the 1962 Mickey Mantle-Roger Maris vehicle Safe at Home!, when consensus was that conflict should be limited in American society by emphasizing economic growth and a strong stand against Communism"--Provided by publisher
