Could have used that info a week ago. Loved the book though, good times.
I love the new cover. Kudos to whoever designed it.
Nice, but this book is definitely one of those that I’ve enjoyed enough to justify a hardback. It’s on the must list with Moneyball, Clemente, Sandy Koufax: A Lefty’s Legacy, and Built to Win.
Dang it JC, I just got the hardcover for Christmas and now this!
Congrats.
Perhaps for your international readers, you could look into whether it’s offered on amazon.co.jp or amazon.co.uk? I’ll look it up when I get home, but there must be international readers like me…right?
