Don't mistake this for just another run-of-the-mill sports story. Like any great baseball game, Chin Music mixes elements of romance, mystery and suspense, leaving the reader wishing it was only the first game of a double-header." - Charles Salzberg, author. "Lee Edelstein has captured the dream of reaching the majors with a new twist based on baseball's most legendary figure. Chin Music will take you on an adventure that embraces the spirit of family and the game in a story that is as inspiring as it is entertaining." - Dick Stockton, named as one of the top 50 network sportscasters of all time. "Chin Music. In baseball terms, a 95 mile-per-hour fastball thrown at a hitter's chin. Its purpose? To disrupt the batter's concentration, throw him off kilter. But there's a split second's difference between getting in the batter's head and hitting it, causuing serious damage or worse. In a larger sense, chin music is a metaphor for that split second - a phone call in the middle of the night, a visit to the doctor - when our lives are irrevocably changed and our destinies are forever altered. St. Petersburg, Florida, 1926 - the New York Yankees have begun spring training. After a morning workout, Babe Ruth and two of his teammates walk into a barbershop to get haircuts. An encounter takes place that will have wondrous consequences 85 years later. Jupiter, Florida, present day - Ryan Buck, high school senior and talented athlete, is awoken in the middle of the night by the nightmare that has haunted him for the past two years. What does the dream mean? Will he ever remember anything about the devastating accident that changed everything? Orlando, Florida - Susan Buck, Ryan's mother, is determined to do whatever is necessary for hyer children no matter what the cost. She has come to Orlando in the hope of selling an old baseball card that's been in her family for years, but it's not without controversy. Just as she 's about to sell the card a quirky retiree intervenes ans saves her from making a dreadful mistake. And so begins a grand adventure that will forever change the lives of the Buck family and baseball. Chin Music weaves a keen awareness of human emotion and a passion for baseball into a coming-of-age story that is part sports tale, part family saga, and 100% compelling reading. It's a story that will stay with the reader long after the noise of the crowd fades." - from the rear outer cover. Signed by Author(s).

Taschenbuch. Condition: Neu. nach der Bestellung gedruckt Neuware - Printed after ordering - Chin Music. A 95 mile-per-hour fastball thrown at a hitter¿s chin -- an instant¿s difference between disrupting the batter¿s concentration and hitting him in the head. As a metaphor in life, chin music is the split second when destinies are altered and all of our certainties about who we are change forever. Sixteen-year-old Ryan Buck is a talented athlete who was fortunate to escape with minor injuries from the horrific car crash that devastated his family. But factor in the suffocating guilt and the recurring nightmare that plagues him and maybe Ryan wasn¿t so lucky, after all. Two-and-a-half years and countless hours of therapy later, Ryan still can¿t remember a thing about the accident and it¿s making for agonizingly slow progress. But everything changes when his mom, Susan, is forced to sell the old Babe Ruth artifacts that have been in the family for years. Enter Sam Frank, a Yoda-like figure, who saves Susan from making a costly mistake. Sam¿s friendship and knowledge provides the support Susan needs to investigate a secret that has plagued her family for generations ¿ the remarkable encounter between her great grandmother Zel and the immortal Yankee slugger. As Ryan slowly makes progress, baseball becomes an important outlet, emotionally and physically. When his superior talent for the sport is recognized, a chance at the major leagues becomes a reality, leaving Susan torn between her excitement at Ryan's prospects and protecting her family from the truth that will turn their world upside down. When the facts emerge, it becomes a story with startling implications for the Buck family, baseball, and sports fans across America.
