I grew up in Decatur and Champaign, so it was an added bonus for me that Macon is close to Decatur and Lynn Sweet's family settled in Champaign. Fred Schooley, one of Sweet's Champaign friends, taught and coached at Champaign Central when I went there. It was a pleasant surprise to find him in the story. Macon also played at Champaign Central's McKinley Field, which is where Central's baseball team still plays.
Highly recommended for people who like a good sports story, especially those who live in Central Illinois.… (altro)
