Average Reviews:
(More customer reviews)I have a hard time finding books that my 13 year old sports nut will read. After reading him the first chapter, he was hooked and finished this book within 1 week. He loved it. I was intriqued and decided to read it as well. I loved it. It tells about how a 13 year old travels back in time to 1864 to play baseball. Teaches lots about history without seeming to be at all educational. Great book. Strongly recommend it.

The tale of a modern day boy who tumbles from his bike and wakes up to find he has traveled back in time to the spring of 1864 in rural Michigan during the Civil War. His southern accent, cultural views and even the sport he loves all come in conflict with everything he has ever known. The story unfolds as his new 19th century friend, Sally Norton, helps him learn the ways of this war-torn Northern community. Written by Robert A. Lytle Illustrated by Bill Williams
