Dillontown was built upon a gold mine. Yet for the villagers, life is about
something even more valuable:
baseball Home to the
Dillontown Nine, they would give
anything to join the ranks of
professional ballplayers—even their gold. Yet to make it, they will need to defeat the world
champion Chicago White Stockings—and their crooked owner, willing to wager anything for the mine, and willing to do anything to avoid losing. Fortunately, Dillontown is home to two boys who know a little something about winning. One is young Jack Dillon, nephew to Dillontown founder Long John Dillon. The other? A boy on the run, in need of a second chance: none other than Billy the Kid.
One of the fi nest storytellers of our time, John H. Ritter brings the Old West to life in this prequel to his breakout success, The Boy Who Saved Baseball..
