FOR
THE
LOVE
OF
A
GAME,
PROSPECT
is
a
"gentle,
big-hearted"
(Kirkus
Reviews)
novel
steeped
in
the
lore
and
mythology
of
baseball.
At
its
center
stands
Pete
Estey,
a
lifelong
baseball
scout
who
finds
himself
divorced,
retired,
and
prematurely
consigned
to
a
retirement
home,
where
his
only
diversions
are
the
nightly
ballgame
on
the
radio,
his
memories,
and
his
droll
observations
of
his
fellow
pensioners.
When
an
attendant
at
the
home
presents
him
with
one
last
prospect
for
the
major
leagues,
though,
Pete
discovers
it
to
be
the
most
important
of
his
career.
"Perceptive and engaging" (Los Angeles Times), PROSPECT tells the story of an unlikely kinship and an even more unlikely success and explores the boundless possibilities for rebirth both on and off the field.
