Redemption: A Tale of Baseball and Life

Tom Miller

Redemption: A Tale of Baseball and Life is a story of how losing a Little League championship game led to lifelong anguish and despair. Coached by Vietnam War combat vets, Redemption details the amazing turnaround of a team once laughed at by opponents and their magical season when they advanced to the championship game. Written by the youngest son of a retired United States Navy Chief Hospital Corpsman, the author sprinkles his life experiences throughout the story. Learn how Donald Duck, Elvis Presley, Academy Award-winning actress Joan Crawford, Paintball, and Egyptian President Anwar Sadat have all played a role in the author's life, and how his baseball career essentially ended before it really began. And what's up with his refusal to eat a particular fruit since 1966?
