Hey, ya’all. It’s the start of a week full of possibilities. How about getting down to a library and checking out a book? Thursday after work would be a perfect time, and the Buder Branch Library at 4401 Hampton would be the perfect place. When you’ve got your book, stick around at 7 to hear me talk about my book, Beer, Brats, and Baseball: St. Louis Germans.

Mike Montgomery has asked me to come back to his program on Alton Radio Station WBGZ Radio 1570 at 3 p.m. April 18. We may talk about my new book about the Arch as well as Beer, Brats, and Baseball, St. Louis Germans.

You can stream the program live or get it on demand at http://www.wbgzradio.com/

Set your calendars for 7 p.m. April 18. That’s when I’ll be talking about my book, Beer, Brats, and Baseball: St. Louis Germans at the Buder Branch of the St. Louis Public Library, 4401 Hampton Ave.
