    About this ebook

    This tells the story of a small town boy who became a star baseball pitcher, was asked to sign a contract for the New York Yankees, but went into teaching and coaching instead. His claim to fame is having pitched an "almost Perfect Game", 17 innings that ended in a 3-3 tie. His poetry reflects the artistry of baseball and the players of the game.

      Women Sweeping

      Mar 15, 2022

      The woman in Édouard Vuillard’s Woman Sweeping, painted between 1899 and 1900, is Marie Michaud Vuillard, the painter’s mother. She is tall and stocky, her posture—that slight give of the back to the broom, without bending—marking a nonchalant style
