I'm pleased that Darryl weighed in, and am looking forward to his next book.
Last year I actually used "If I Never Get Back" in a class that I offered on
Baseball fiction, thus marrying two of my loves.  I am looking forward to
his
new effort.  More whimsically, a student, who has taken me for both classes
on
Twain and another on American humor, surprised me this Christmas by giving
me a
new book (which I hadn't heard of--"Adventures of Huckleberry Finn and
Zombie
Jim" by Mark Twain with W. Bill Czolgosz. I guess there is no end to Twain's
never-ending presence.
