Backroads and Ballplayers Author - Retired Educator
Russellville AR
I am a retired educator with over 50 years spent in Arkansas Schools. I am a life-long baseball fan, historian, and writer. Last year I published a book on baseball in rural Arkansas during the first half of the 20th century. Backroads and Ballplayers features over 50 stories of professional baseball players from rural Arkansas. I also write a monthly column on Arkansas baseball history in the online magazine Only In Arkansas. https://onlyinark.com/author/jim-yeager
I would love to inspire young people to enjoy Arkansas history and research.
