How My Mother Accidentally...
(1999)tossed Out My Entire Baseball-card Collection and Other Sports Stories
A non fiction book by Bob Mitchell
"Sports inspires fascination, and so I've written about sports of all shapes and colors...Taking place in locales as varied as Boro Park and Williamstown, Columbus and West Lafayette, Maine and Texas, Maui and Tel Aviv. And with story-lines that I've found to be ceaselessly thought-provoking. The cosmic significance of baseball cards. The genetic ramifications of tossing a hardball. The quest to determine the hairiest NBA player ever. The tragic nature of rooting. The proper way to name your dog. A brief history of hats. The relationship of sports to Latin. The tiny place in your brain where all trivia is sorted."
