After a wrenching period of adjustment, he feels rejuvenated by his involvement with the nation¿s first pro baseball team, the Cincinnati Red Stockings. But American sports isn't the only thing to undergo a major transformation¿Sam himself starts to change as he faces life-threatening 19th-century challenges on and off the baseball diamond. With the support of his fellow ballplayers and the lovely Caitlin O'Neill, will he regain the sense of family he desperately needs?
