Seller's Description:
New in New jacket. Book. 8vo-over 7¾"-9¾" tall. Signed by Author(s) Woodstock, NY, Overlook, 2003. SIGNED BY AUTHOR. First edition, first printing. 8vo. Black quarter cloth over gold-colored boards with gilt lettering embossed on spine, 224 pp. With disarming intensity, humor and great heart, the author tells the story of Dennis Birch, a washed-up thirty-four year old baseball player turned minor league scout. At the request of his organization, he embarks on a quest to smuggle the hot left-handed pitcher out of Fidel Castro's Cuba. Birch is both narrator and a memorable character as he reveals the sordid and morally complex tale to fulfill his mission, at once humorous, harrowing and affirming. New in a new dust jacket, protected by a mylar cover.
