Ï¿½What a book -- an exquisite exercise in story-telling, democracy and myth-making that has, at its center, a great respect for the symphony of voices that make up America.Ï¿½ (Ï¿½Colum McCann), An astonishing tale that lyrically articulates baseball's inexorable grip on its players and fans, Bottom of the 33rd belongs among the best baseball books ever written., A worthy companion to Roger Kahn's classic Boys of Summer ...[Dan Barry] exploits the power of memory and nostalgia with literary grace and journalistic exactitude. He blends a vivid, moment-by-moment re-creation of the game with what happens to its participants in the next 30 years., A fascinating, beautifully told story... In the hands of Barry, a national correspondent for the New York Times, this marathon of duty, loyalty, misery and folly becomes a riveting narrative...The book feels like 'Our Town' on the diamond., Winner of the 2012 PEN/ESPN Award for Literary Sportswriting -- Dan Barry has crafted a loving and lyrical tribute to a time and a place when you stayed until the final out...because that's what we did in America.
