| Text | George Forrest, The Playground: or, The Boy's Book of Games [G. Rutledge, London, 1858]. Available via Google Books. The manual covers rounders, cricket, and trapball - but not stoolball. Among the features shown: when only a few players were available, backward hits were not in play; leading and pickoffs were used in rounders; the rounders bat is three feet long; two strikes and you're out in trapball; and when a cat is used in place of a ball in rounders, plugging is not allowed. Note: add page reference. |
