Thinking about renaming this segment of the blog “This or That.”
Waddya think?
Anyway…
- Author Tom Clavin put in an appearance recently to discuss his latest, The DiMaggios: Three Brothers, Their Passion for Baseball, and Their Pursuit of the American Dream.
- Here’s an “op-ed”/review of Joseph Sutton’s The Years The Giants Won The Series: A Fan’s Journal of the 2012 and 2010 World Series Season from something called the Digital Journal.
- Brian Lewis has completed a book on the history of baseball in Charlottetown, Nova Scotia (1930-1992) and is looking for the public’s help in locating individual and team photos from 1970 to 1992 to go in it. Anyone who would like to see their photos included in this book, is asked to phone Nancy or Larry at 902-651-2549, or email scanned images to nel.nat@pei.sympatico.ca.
- Author Samuel Regalado discusses his book, Nikkei Baseball: From the Meiji to Internment to the Major Leagues, at 6 p.m. July 3 at the White River Valley Museum, 918 H St. SE, Auburn, Washington.
- MyNorthwest, a Washington-based outlet, profiled Lucas Mann, author of Class A: Baseball in the Middle of Everywhere.
- This blogger refers to this Amazon list about “best baseball book for kids 2013” (although said blogger renamed it “best baseball books for boys” which seems a bit politically incorrect. Sure, I can see a 10-year-old sitting down to enjoy Moneyball. And not to sound self-serving, but 501 Baseball Books Fans Must Read before They Die
— which would seem like a perfect gateway into the world of reading — isn’t on the list but Navy SEALS Training Guide: Mental Toughness is??
