Danny Turner: The Deuce Goose

About the Book

With Danny Turner, Stansberry uses an epistolary to advance, color, and develop characters created in his two earlier novels, So Sings The Chattahoochee and 234 Whitehall. The book focuses on Danny Turner, high school friend of Dewey Favers, and the Campbellton children whose relationships were so solidly formed back in that magical summer of 1912. Watch for the companion book, Dewey Favers: Aviator Angel which contains the other side of this conversation. Coming soon. The book is a collection of letters detailing a year in the life of minor league baseball star Danny Turner, as he is called up to the majors for a glorious season with the 1926 St. Louis Cardinals......the eventual World Series Champions. Perhaps life, is more important, and surprising, than baseball?
