Dixon will soon appear in a book about baseball. The City of Dixon worked with the book's author on the project. Here's a bit of information about the book, which will be available on Amazon soon:
The Farmer's Game: Baseball in Rural America includes information about the rural baseball teams in Dixon. Our archivist, Shirley Parsons, worked with the author David Vaught and a photograph from the Dixon Archives appears on page 46 in the book. The book is being processed and will be available to check out soon!
Price: $19.77 You Save: $10.18 (34%) Pre-order Price Guarantee. Learn more.
Just a small correction though- Ms. Parsons worked with the author of the book and accessed our archives on behalf of the Dixon Public Library and that is where the book will be available for check-out. For more information on this title, please call us at 707-678-5447 or visit our Facebook Page. Thanks! Vanessa Christman Director, Dixon Public Library
