Default Highly recommended book

I don't know where to post this, if anywhere, but we had a baseball related book discussion not long ago.

I HIGHLY recommend, tho its not old, in fact, it just recently came out, its about an old vintage event. "Miracle Ball" by Brian Biegel, about the search for the Bobby Thomson Shot Heard Round the World ball. This book is simply great, part detective story, part history, and part father and son drama. A must read for baseball fans IMO.

I also agree. Great book. Hardback versions can be had for $15 or less from Amazon or Albris. Unbelievable ending and conclusion. I would like to see the
movie. See movie trailer on You Tube (Miracle Ball).
