Early baseballs were called "lemon-peel balls"; bowling was such a popular diversion among fourteenth-century English soldiers that King Edward III outlawed it; billiard balls made in the 1800s sometimes exploded on contact. This book combines the often humorous and strange history of balls used in popular sports with facts and figures about how those balls are made and used today. Includes quizzes and activities. Photographs and full-color illustrations.
