A truly interesting, scholarly study of how a building occupies a significant place in the lives and psyches of thousands of people. Dr. Borer explores what make Fenway Park a shrine of pilgrimage for generations of Red Sox fans, Bostonians, and New Englanders. As a sociological study, this is an enveloping, well-researched case study of how geography, sports, and American history combine with the lives of people to create an environment that connects directly into the cultural identity of a city and a region.
