The Voices I Grew Up With: From Nev Chandler to Vin Scully (Paperback) (ISBN-13: 9798268139594)

The Voices That Shaped a Boy - and Pointed Him to the Greater Voice

Long before streaming and endless highlight reels, there were voices in the air.
Nev Chandler counting down a Browns touchdown. Herb Score steady through the innings. Tom Hamilton's thunderous "SWING AND A DRIVE!" Vin Scully weaving baseball into poetry.

For a boy in Ohio, those voices weren't just broadcasters - they were companions. They rode along in the car with his dad, drifted across summer porches with his grandpa, and whispered through late-night radios by his bed. They taught anticipation, steadiness, passion, and grace.

In The Voices I Grew Up With: From Nev Chandler to Vin Scully, Derek Hone tells a story of sports, memory, and faith. These chapters honor the announcers who stitched communities together, but they also point to something deeper - the Voice that still speaks today.

With warmth, honesty, and reflection, Derek shares how play-by-play calls became lessons in belonging, how radio rhythms turned into testimony, and how the soundtrack of a boy's life prepared him to hear the truest call of all.
For sports fans, radio lovers, and anyone who believes voices matter, this book is both a nostalgic journey and a spiritual testimony.

"Voices don't just inform - they form. They shape how we listen, how we hope, and how we hear the One Voice that never fades."
