For the second year in a row the Charlotte Knights will be honoring women who contributed to the game of baseball. This year Park Road Books is pleased to announce a collaboration between our store and the Charlotte Knights. When you purchase a ticket for the Women in Baseball Night, you will receive a copy of "The Love of Baseball" written by some amazing area authors.
"The Love of Baseball" features thirty contributors sharing their personal narratives of how they found an abiding passion for the sport and how their relationship to it changed over the years. The essays begin with stories of spring training optimism, followed by the guts and grind of the regular season, and ending with the glory (or heartbreak) of the playoffs.
Authors: Chris Arvidson and Diana Nelson Jones, Henry Doss, Nancy Gutierrez, Stephen Ward, Elizabeth Leik, Dave Malehorn, Rebecca Layton, Victoria Stopp, Ellyn Ritterskamp, and Caroline Kane Kenna.
