Description
Please join EVERYbody Reads as we welcome back Lansing's resident baseball scribe, Peter Morris.
Catcher, which has received splendid early reviews from Publisher's Weekly and other critics, (http://www.becauseeverybodyreads.com/Catcher.htm) is Peter's 6th and most recent baseball offering. Earlier works have received the Michigan Notable Authors Award and both the Seymour Medal and CASEY Award, the highest honors available to baseball writers.
About the Author
Peter Morris's most recent previous book is But Didn't We Have Fun?, a widely praised informal history of the early days of baseball before it turned professional. His A Game of Inches, a compendium of baseball's innovations, was called "magisterial" by the Boston Globe and was the first book ever to win both the Seymour Medal and the Casey Award as the best baseball book of the year. A former national and international Scrabble champion, Mr. Morris lives in Haslett, Michigan.
