Interesting, somewhat random pick. Are you a big baseball fan?

I'm more a baseball dilettante, I guess. I typically go to maybe three or four major and minor league games in a season, and cheer for the Cardinals on TV.It's not completely random, though it is not a book I would have chosen for myself. A friend, who is very much a big baseball fan, and who knew I had Arkansas connections, passed it to me, as he had two copies.

Well that was very nice of your friend. I hope you're enjoying it!
It is interesting, and it's fun to read about people from small towns I've driven through, or at least seen freeway exits for. The book itself has some stylistic issues, but I'll give a more thorough review when I've finished it.
