 Author Book Talk and Signing
Wednesday, Feb. 27, 7:00 PM

Meet author Dan Gordon, co-author of Haunted Baseball
Ghosts, Cursese, Legends and Eerie Events. Mr. Gordon will
talk about his book, answer questions and will sign copies
for anyone wishing to purchase the book. 
Baseball and ghost stories are American obsessions. Haunted
Baseball combines both with this fun and freaky collection
of otherworldly yarns.

The authors interviewed more than 800 players, managers and
coaches – as well as numerous stadium personnel and fans
– to uncover these supernatural tales. With a wealth of
anecdotes that have never before been told, Haunted Baseball
gives readers an entertaining and eerie look at our national
pastime.

Mr. Gordon is also the co-author of Cape Encounters:
Contemporary Cape Cod Ghost Stories.

Join us for this free, fun, informative evening just in time
for batting season!
