Box Socials [EPUB ebook] 

From the author of Shoeless Joe, the book that inspired the movie Field of Dreams.Here’s the story of how Truckbox Al Mc Clintock, a small-town greaser whose claim to fame was hitting a baseball clean across the Pembina River, almost got a tryout with the genuine St. Louis Cardinals — but instead ended up batting against Bob Feller of Cleveland Indian Fame in Renfrew Park, Edmonton, Alberta.
