The nation-wide Playing with the Enemy book tour kicks off at the Museum of Science and Industry in Chicago on September 14, right in front of U-505! http://msichicago.org/exhibit/U505/index.html After a news conference (where we will be making a very exciting announcement), author Gary Moore will be signing copies of his new book at the MSI gift shop.
(Quick fill in for those of you who haven’t read Neal’s review of Playing with the Enemy in the Books section—Playing with the Enemy: A Baseball Prodigy, a World at War, and a Field of Broken Dreams is the story of author Gary Moore’s father, Gene Moore, who was a 15-year-old baseball prodigy when WWII started. After playing on the Navy baseball team during WWII, Gene and his teammates were shipped back to the United States and given the task of guarding German POWs from the captured submarine U-505. While guarding them in Louisiana, Gene and his teammates taught the imprisoned U-505 crew how to play baseball.)
Check out the newly-re-designed Playing with the Enemy website here http://playingwiththeenemy.com/ A list of Gary’s appearances is posted on the Events page http://playingwiththeenemy.com/events.htm Please take a look to see if there is an event near you. We look forward to meeting you!
