Pinstripes: The Unknown Story of the World's Best Pinstriper
They’re the small stripes you see adorning the side of a car or the tank of a motorcycle. Awhile ago I became so enchanted with them that I had the novel idea of writing a book about a young man who discovers an unknown talent for the craft. For anyone who’s ever grinned at a nicely-painted car, for everybody who remembers their first sweetheart, for anybody with a soft place in their heart for dogs, Pinstripes is a contemporary tale about trust and duplicity, faith and despair, cherry ChapStick and cherry-flavored pancake syrup. And the fine lines that separate all of them. Rated 20 out of 20 by Writer’s Digest. 268 pp. $15.
