Book Signing: Austin Gisriel - Boots Poffenberger: Hurler, Hero, Hell-Raiser

 Boots Poffenberger exploded onto the big leagues scene in 1937, going 10-5
in his rookie season, and out-dueling all-time greats Bob Feller and Lefty
Grove. But Boots soon became more famous for his off-the-field adventures and
his irreverence towards the game, virtually unheard of in his time. This is
Boots’ story–from his Huck Finn beginnings to his major league fame to his
service during World War II and the years that followed as a minor league star
and local hero.
