Strawn’s new book, Societas Americana ($22.99, paperback, 9781545660645; $9.99,
e-book, 9781545660652), tells the tale of the Traveling Coopers, a baseball
team that inspired America from the Civil War to the Cold War. While they play, they learn about belonging,
about family and about making space for others.
The
novel uses elements from the past to bring light to the present and inspire the
future with timeless values and plenty of fun from America’s favorite pastime.
“Societas Americana tells
the stories of a family who formed a team, who traveled across the United
States, who found purpose in the fields of play,” said Strawn.
