http://www.worldcat.org/oclc/758884515

The questionnaires were sent in 1971 and 1975 to former major leaguers who had played in 1920 or earlier. This information was used by Steven A Riess in the writing of his book, 'Touching Base: Professional Baseball and American Culture in the Progressive Era'. The questions relate to parents' occupation, player and spouse occupation and education, children's occupation, city parks where the player lived and its impact on the community.
