Summer Game Books Releases THE GLOBAL BASEBALL CLASSROOM: Reflections Beyond Home by Brent Loehr

SOUTH ORANGE, N.J. - May 17, 2015 - PRLog -- Read about leading a baseball clinic for the Inuit. Rub elbows with self-exiled wild man Bill Lee. Meet a one-armed pitcher from the Czech Republic who never heard of Jim Abbott. The eye-opening and heart-warming essays in this collection are reminders that baseball can be both a carefree diversion and a force that shapes our lives and culture.

From his years as a catcher in competitive leagues, to his extensive coaching in Canada and the United States, to his position as an Envoy Coach for Major League Baseball, no one has lived baseball quite the way Brent Loehr has. Brent’s unique background enlivens and informs the essays in Global Baseball Classroom: Reflections Beyond Home.

"Brent's baseball adventures span the globe, and the lessons he draws from them are inspiring," says Summer Game Books publisher, Walter Friedman. "His is a truly unique story, and we are very pleased to share it with the baseball community."

Global Baseball Classroom releases to bookstores on May 26, 2015 in both trade paperback and eBook. Mr. Loehr welcomes opportunities for interviews, and digital Advance Reader promotional copies are immediately available for review.
