A good find at the Boothbay Memorial Library used bookstore in Boothbay Harbor, ME. Great condition and only $2. Inscription: Happy Fathers Day 1991. Boothbay is one of my favorite vacation spots and this particular shop usually has some good finds.
I love early autobiographies, especially from this era. It will be good to follow it up afterwards with the more recent Howard Bryant book, 'The Last Hero: A Life of Henry Aaron'.
Lonnie Wheeler has co-written some additional books with players (most notably Bob Gibson and Mike Piazza) and he has a new one coming out in August called Intangiball, which sounds compelling enough that you'll probably see it on this site later on down the line.
Add this one to the stacks!
