This Old Man: All in Pieces by Roger Angell
4.0
Classic Angell. For the record, I'm a huge fan; his baseball essays were part of my introduction to being a real fan of the game, not just my team, and I love his style.
This book has that style, applied to other topics as well. Angell has rightly been praised for the title piece—lines and bits of it have stuck in my mind for months. He's been a lucky man, in many ways, and he both knows and acknowledges it with his customary grace.
