Full Version: Interviews from Red Sox Nation the revised edition
Thanks for the information! I had the other version in my shopping cart the other day, but opted for something else instead and put it on my wish list. Now...I'll revise that, and hold out for a few more months (I've got other reading I can catch up on). Thanks again!
The revised paperback should be hitting bookstores by the end of the month. It is now available for shipping at Amazon:

These are the blurbs on the back cover:
Sports heroes keep their guard up off the field, but David Laurila takes that basic staple of sports, the one-on-one interview, and brings it back to the level of real conversation. Nobody can top David's ability to make his interviews a unique blend of basic baseball insight, sabermetric concepts in action on the diamond, and teasing out those things that matter most to the players, coaches, and execs he introduces us to.
-- Christina Kahrl, Baseball Prospectus
It's one thing to talk about Red Sox Nation. It's quite another, better thing to become well-acquainted with many of the Nation's leading citizens.
-- Rob Neyer, ESPN.com
David brings fresh eyes, a probing curiosity and an informed perspective to a familiar subject....He combines a fan's sensibility with a pro's technique.
--Gordon Edes, Boston Globe
In a city where everything having to do with the Red Sox tends to be overblown, overanalyzed and overly-dissected, David Laurila always seems to find the unique and intriguing angle.
--Jeff Horrigan, Boston Herald
Probing, insightful questions without the fluff.
-- David Pinto, The Sporting News
