It blows my mind like Kurt Bevacqua's winning bubble to say this, but my book Big Hair And Plastic Grass: A Funky Ride Through Baseball And America In The 1970s is going to hit your local bookstore in five days — Tuesday, May 25 to be precise. And I just wanted to remind all you beautiful, '70s baseball-lovin' people that you can buy it from Amazon and Barnes & Noble (both of whom also have it available in digital form, if you're into that 21st Century reading experience kinda thing) or from the indie bookseller of your choice.
Also wanted to hip you to a very cool Windy City-centric interview I just did with the Onion's Chicago AV Club, and a lovely shout-out from Bruce Markusen (a baseball author whose work I admire greatly) in today's Hardball Times. Thanks again to everyone for all the support and good vibes; I'm about to embark on my first promo jaunt on the book's behalf, and I am more hopped-up about it than Larry Bowa with a fistful of greenies.
