I think this guy's blog has been mentioned here on a couple of occasions.
Well now he has a book - due out in a few weeks - a memoir specifically, about growing up with baseball cards and a rather odd family.

I have never collected baseball cards but this book sounds like a good read , of course it's not just about the cards.

I begged the local bookstore to have him in for a reading but they were booked up when he'll be in town.

His site knocks me out every day.

His three-parter about the Nets was the Moby Dick of blogs.
