Joe if you haven’t already, you should read two true crime books by Bill James - yes that Bill James. One is kind of his thoughts on famous criminal cases in US history, and his excellent research and no nonsense writing style makes it very entertaining for me. This includes his thoughts on many other crime books. He also discusses a pretty plausible theory on who killed JFK.
The other is called the man from the train, where he and his daughter(!!!) basically solve numerous murder cases from the early part of the 1900s, probably identifying the first known serial killer in the US.
I cannot see how Joe and Elizabeth wouldn’t enjoy these.
I was shocked, my wife bought me Baseball 100. I didn’t think she even knew about it but Tony on CBS This Morning said it was great and she bought it. He’s right and she’s special.
Joe, I love your blog and the quote from my all-time favorite movies, "It's a Wonderful Life." I would only add the inscription Clarence wrote for George, "No man is a failure who has friends." As George said after reading those words, "Attaboy, Clarence!" Merry Christmas to all! John Kunich, Charlotte NC
Thanks for everything you do, Joe, including holding your nose and acquiescing to my request for you to acknowledge in signing my copy of your wonderful book that Derek Jeter really is the Son of God (I mean, just look at his name. It’s so obviously a pseudonym!😜)
All kidding aside, Joe, you are the best. As the Japanese say, you are a National Living Treasure.

Love all of your update posts like this, Joe. Thanks! Will your article for Chess Life be published on the site also?
We need a dedicated post about the John Wayne Gacy painting. Maybe a book.

I bought my copy of 100 at BAM in Concord NH. Anyway I can get a nameplate for it?
No offense Joe but John Jordan O'Neil might rooting for Mr. Wheeler's book to win The Casey Award.
Thanks for the list of baseball books. Should help get me through a long winter (and maybe, if need be, a long spring).
They're stacked so high I can barely stare out the window.
