Is This Heaven?: The Magic of the Field of Dreams

by Brett Mandel

More than three decades ago, the film Field of Dreams made grown men cry with its tale of a son's quest to know his father through the magic of baseball. The mystical baseball field of that movie continues to attract thousands of visitors and here is the story of a make-believe place made real, its incredible lure, and its effect on the people who have stepped between its chalk lines.

This book is a perfect pre- or post Field of Dreams read (thanks for the autographed copy Elliot!). We went to Dyersville last month and I already want to go again after finishing the book!

I think we're all looking for a little magic in our lives. The field and the book did not disappoint.
