Ben Bradlee, Jr.’s “The Kid” Is Out. The Reviews Are Starting To Come In. The Associated Press
Ben Bradlee, Jr.’s “The Kid” is out. The reviews are starting to come in. The Associated Press review:
“Absorbing…this is surely the definitive Ted Williams book. …Bradlee’s brilliant account is required reading for any Red Sox fan. It’s also a fascinating portrait of a complex character that a baseball agnostic or even a Yankees fan will find hard to put down.” Full review here.

Just some musings and electronic gatherings of an ink-stained wretch turned social media junkie. As JADAL says: No trees were destroyed in the sending of this organic message. I do concede, however, a significant number of electrons may have been inconvenienced.
