Hello readers. I've just published my debut novel; The Death and Resurrection of Baseball. It is a delightful feel good story getting great early reviews. I would be humbled for your support and review. It is a story more than just about baseball, it is a story about us as a nation.
Description:
In the year 2166, a post Second Civil War America is finally back on its feet. Among the countless personal and cultural casualties of the war, the sport of baseball has been dead for over a hundred years. 12-year-old Joe Scott lives in the northern Illinois city of McHenry and goes exploring in the woods one day in a no man's land that a hundred years earlier was the site of the bloodiest battle of the war. While there, he discovers a relic from the distant past, from before the war. It sparks a search for its meaning. Little does he know that the wheels of Providence have been unwittingly set in motion which leads to a stunning discovery in Dyersville, Iowa.
This second discovery has a direct connection with the relic found in McHenry. As events unfold, Joe finds himself at the center of the rediscovery of a sport long lost and forgotten by the ravages of time and war.
What if you could travel back into the past

for tea and offering to walk her back to her hotel after the band quits playing
for the night.
But much to her dismay,
Susan's 17-year-old hormones begin to play havoc with her 62-year-old brain,
tempting her towards a relationship with James that she's not really certain
she wants.

always thought him to be? Or, will she learn that sometimes when a dream comes
true, that it's not quite what you expected?
