Play For A Kingdom.

THOMAS DYJA

Publication: Harcourt Brace & Co, (1997), New York

First edition. Signed. Author's first book. Fine in dust jacket. In May, 1864, during a moment of quiet, a Union and Confederate company meet and decide to play baseball. In the ensuing days of the war they meet to play four more times even as their armies collide in the battle now known as Spotsylvania. Each game brings each of them closer to either court-martial or a violent and anonymous end, for what began as a game turns into a business as serious as death and dishonor.
