We're looking for books and other materials for young and old that aren't about Hank Greenberg or Sandy Koufax or Lipman Pike. In fact, we'd like to go outside baseball, and maybe even find some women if there are any. Fiction would be good too, but can't think of anything between The Natural and The Art of Fielding, and the only thing Jewish about those is their authors. We need to broaden our horizons! Please shower ideas on us! Thanks!
