Author Night Welcomes Marshall UmplebyMarshall Umpleby returns to Author Night at the Ashland Branch Library, 410 Siskiyou Boulevard, on Monday, January 5, from 7-8 p.m.Umpleby's latest book, Delayed Steal: Baseball Stories, is a collection of engaging stories using baseball as the background and unifying element. Baseball is life, or so the saying goes. In this book, a man's relationship with his father coincides with the twists, turns, and surprises experienced in the game of baseball. From a sandlot in Massachusetts at the turn of the century to an old Stadium-cum-Wal-Mart in present day Oregon, the reader is taken from one game to the next, with father and son ever present—either on the field or in the stands.Author Night is proudly sponsored by the Friends of the Ashland Public Library.
