Chasing Moonlight

ebook
A single line of type in the Baseball Encyclopedia. One major league game. A career batting average of .000. But the name—Moonlight Graham—suggested a hidden story. So did the circumstances. A North Carolina native, Graham lived out his life in one of the coldest places in North America, as if he'd been exiled. "Let's get up and go to Chisholm, Minnesota," author W. P. Kinsella told his wife, "and find out about him." And so began the ascent of Dr. Archibald W. "Moonlight" Graham from baseball footnote to cultural icon. In the novel Shoeless Joe, Kinsella described a selfless doctor who quit baseball to serve a remote mining community. His readers were intrigued. So were Kevin Costner and Burt Lancaster, who played Graham in Field of Dreams, the adaptation of Kinsella's novel. For millions, Graham became a symbol of broken dreams and second chances. In Chasing Moonlight, Brett Friedlander and Robert Reising prove that truth is more interesting than fiction.
