Default America's First Baseball Book: The Base Ball Player's Pocket Companion

I should also add that regardless of the book's original cost, it was likely bought by someone who was fairly well educated. If you didn't have much schooling, the book would have been too technical and uninteresting. That alone suggests it would have been purchased by someone with at least a bit of social standing.
