Pirates on the Prairie - More Great Reviews!

Pirates on the Prairie is getting rave reviews in Minnesota newspapers and on Amazon.com (all reviewers gave 5 out of 5 stars!).

Here's another recent Pirates on the Prairie review we're excited to share with readers:

As much a tour of mid-twentieth century small-town life as it is an exciting sports chronicle, January 8, 2009
By Midwest Book Review (Oregon, WI USA) - Historian, columnist, and native Minnesotan Eric Bergeson presents Pirates on the Prairie: A True Story, the real-life chronicle of the small-town "Pirates" basketball team of Halstad, Minnesota (population 590) in the year 1952. This plucky group of athletes consistently got the better of teams from towns and cities many times larger. Pirates on the Prairie is as much a tour of mid-twentieth century small-town life as it is an exciting sports chronicle, and is sure to appeal to anyone who enjoys true underdog sports stories. Highly recommended.
