Little League Confidential: One Coach's Completely Unauthorized Tale of Survival

One coach's completely unauthorized tale of survival, set in the manicured sandlots of suburban New Jersey. Bill Geist, semi-permanent coach of Curl Up 'N Dye's Fighting Hairdressers, brings us a riotously funny record of an institution and its inmates - the innocent kids, the ruthless coaches, the shameless moms, and the litigious dads. Just when it seems that Little League may be no place for a kid, this all-star line-up of conniving commissioners and mitt-impaired fielders sends the sport off and over the wall.. Praise for Little League Confidential. "Bill Geist is the funniest writer since Marcel Proust - I mean Mark Twain - no, make that Yogi Berra." - Russell Baker. "A lighthearted romp . . . essential reading for seasons to come." - The New York Times Book Review. "Very, very, very funny." - Larry King, USA Today
