This is a great story of the relationship that develops between Charlie Banks - a pro baseball player - and Joey Margolis - a young Jewish boy living in NYC. It is a great glimpse of life in the 1940's covering politics, entertainment, sports, the war and just everyday life. At times the book is laugh out loud funny. Very enjoyable.
