American Past Time

Description

He’s a baseball player with dreams of pitching in the major leagues, but he also needs to make ends meet and take care of his family. It’s America in the 50s and change is coming fast.

September 1953 . . .

Dancer Stonemason is three days from his major league debut. With his wife and son cheering him on, he pitches the greatest game of his life. And then loses everything.

Told against the backdrop of America’s postwar challenges from Little Rock to the Bay of Pigs to Viet Nam, American Past Time is the story of what happens to a man and his family after the cheering stops.
