The next book from Peter will be Catcher: How the Man Behind the Plate Became an Iconic American Folk Hero, due out in spring 2009.  The book centers on the later professional era, but also covers the catchers of the 1860s.

Along with Richard Malatzky and John Thorn, Peter is guiding The Pioneer Project toward print.  The project goal is to comprise histories of a large number of the oldest base ball clubs, including many from the 1850s and 1860s.  The two dozen writers now at their drafting tables include David Arcidiacono, Priscilla Astifan, David Ball, Fred Burwell, John Bowman, Frank Ceresi, Ben Dettmer, Scott Fiesthumel, Robert Gregory, César Gonzalez, Richard Hershberger, Bill Humber, Jeff Kittel, Angus Macfarlane, Richard Malatzky, Peter Morris, Greg Perkins, Jeff Sackmann, Trey Strecker, John Thorn, Dixie Tourangeau, Brian Turner, Craig Waff, and John Zinn.  For more details on the project, go to http://www.petermorrisbooks.com/pioneer_project.htm.
