Generous Review & Interview
Thanks to the New Brighton Bulletin for the kind review and fine interview. Says writer Cody Zustiak: “Baseball and Minnesota sports fans will surely enjoy digging into Swift’s research and being taken back in time to learn more about some of baseball’s best players and teams. The book is more than a look into Bender’s baseball career, as it is also a narrative on the prejudice and trials he went through … and one of the most well-liked people [of] his era.”
