Small-Town Heroes : Images of Minor League Baseball, Paperback / softback Book

Small-Town Heroes : Images of Minor League Baseball Paperback / softback

Paperback / softback

Description

In 1993 successful psychologist and journalist Hank Davis undertook an epic journey exploring the atmosphere and culture of both minor league baseball and the small towns that embrace it.

Davis shows us the warmth, quirkiness, and desperate energy of minor league ball, from encounters with future stars to those who would never make it to the “show”; from the kids selling Cracker Jacks outside the park to the aging coaches who persevere out of sheer love for the game.

As Davis says, “the minor leagues are full of stories,” and he tells some of the best of them here.

A new afterword by the author dis-cusses where the minor league players are now.
