Descriere magazin:
2017 Seymour Medal from the Society for American Baseball Research 2016 Pete Delohery Award for Best Sports Book from Shelf Unbound When it opened in 1965, the
Houston Astrodome, nicknamed the
Eighth Wonder of the
World, captured the attention of an entire nation, bringing pride to the city and enhancing its reputation nationwide. It was a Texas-sized vision of the future, an unthinkable feat of engineering with premium luxury suites, theater-style seating, and the first animated scoreboard. Yet there were memorable problems such as outfielders\' inability to see fly balls and failed attempts to grow natural grass--which ultimately led to the development of AstroTurf. The
Astrodome nonetheless changed the way people viewed sports, putting casual fans at the forefront of a user-experience approach that soon became the standard in all American sports. The
Eighth Wonder of the
World tears back the facade and details the
Astrodome\'s role in transforming
Houston as a city while also chronicling the building\'s storied fifty years in existence and the ongoing debate about its preservation.
