The Boston Traveler

The latest Major League Baseball regular season is now roaring into full swing, so what better way to get into the groove of America’s favorite pastime than with a longtime observer, knowledgeable insider, and successful author? You couldn’t do so in a better place than here in Boston, either, where the home team Boston Red Sox are the reigning 2007 World Series Champions.

On Monday, April 7, Harvard Book Store (1256 Massachusetts Avenue, Cambridge, 617-661-1515) will welcome Michael Holley. The current co-host of radio’s Dale & Holley Show on local sports station WEEI is also the author of Patriot Reign and Never Give Up — books that both made the New York Times bestseller list — as well as a former sportswriter at the Boston Globe for ten years.

Holley’s free talk will focus on his latest book, the March 25, 2008, release Red Sox Rule: Terry Francona and Boston’s Rise to Dominance. According to the publisher description, “[w]ith the exclusive cooperation of [Boston Red Sox manager] Terry Francona and stories from the clubhouse and the conference room, Holley reveals the private sessions and the dugout and front-office strategies that have made the Boston Red Sox a budding dynasty.”

Enthusiasts can get an even closer look inside the Red Sox organization by attending Holley’s presentation tomorrow at 7pm EST in Cambridge. [More Information]
