Wait Till Next Year
The defection of the Dodgers to California ended an era of New York baseball -- and closed a chapter in Pulitzer Prize winner Doris Kearns Goodwin's life.
Shortly after the Dodgers left, Goodwin's mother died, and the family moved to
an apartment on the other side of town. This move coincided with the migration
of several families on the block -- and the decline of the corner store as the
supermarket took over. It was the end of an era, the beginning of another, and
for Goodwin, the end of childhood.
Also available in Audiobook.
