One Shot at Forever: A Small Town, an Unlikely Coach, and a Magical Baseball Season by Chris Ballard

I loved this true story of small town high school baseball, period history, and United States politics. The setting is the early 1970s, with the backdrop of the Vietnam War and the peace movement. A new coach with his “hippie” ideas takes over a baseball program with hand-me-down uniforms and no budget. The result is an amazingly successful season that is remembered today by all who experienced it.
