In "one of the funniest and most heartfelt baseball stories in
recent memory" (Publishers Weekly), Howard Frank Mosher returns to
Kingdom Common, Vermont, to spin a touching coming-of-age tale in
an America that has almost disappeared. From this remote village,
noted for its fervent devotion to the Red Sox, comes Ethan "E.A."
Allen, a young man with a chance to change baseball history.
Homeschooled, fatherless, and living on the wrong side of the
tracks, E.A. is haunted by a dark mystery in his family's past
until a drifter named Teddy arrives in his life, determined to
teach E.A. everything he knows about baseball.
Filled with an engaging array of rambunctious, memorable
characters and brimming with faith, Waiting for Teddy Williams is
an irresistible read that reminds us that dreams--no matter how
far-fetched--sometimes do come true.
