This is the story of Jack's turbulent journey from a working-class childhood in Wellesley, Massachusetts, to baseball's ultimate stage; it is the story of perseverance in the face of continual discouragement; and it is the story of one boy's greatest dream turning, in an instant, into the unshakable nightmare that would haunt him the rest of his life.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Jim Hawkins\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 0988230070\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9780988230071\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e 3 Swallys Press\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 11\/28\/2016\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 184\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 0.47lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 8.00h x 5.25w x 0.42d","brand":"Jim Hawkins","offers":[{"title":"Paperback","offer_id":43992611651839,"sku":"9780988230071","price":15.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/files\/img_d9ceffc4-bee4-4eb5-a154-d71f7aa6f945.jpg?v=1683319849","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/jack-sanford-jim-hawkins-9780988230071","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
