Those were the days!, March 12, 2000
What a neat trip back to our Baby Boomer formative years! Garret Mathews writes poignantly and well about things that really mattered--then and now. An enjoyable book!

4 Stars, March 12, 2000
Down to earth; Entertaining; The breaking the window brought back fond memories of the first time of owning up to "my" transgressions and the good feelings it brought even though I was punished for the transgression.

A New Take On Classic Memories, March 11, 2000
"Baseball Days: Recollections of America's Favorite Pastime" provides a nostalgic remembrance of a common childhood experience from the unique perspective of well known celebrities including Charles Shultz and Robert Goulet. In this easy-to-read, well organized literary trip down memory lane, Mathews brilliantly captures the essence of childhood innocence and joy expressed in the carefree games of baseball on the sandlot. He takes us back to a time when the sport could be enjoyed without the interference of salary caps and egos, and highlights the pure enjoyment so many of us experienced growing up. While it may be impossible for us to go back to that magical time of the recess world series in reality, Mathews's latest work provides an enjoyable vehicle for us to vicariously experience those days of pure pleasure indulging in America's favorite pastime.
