Matt Crawford speaks with author Douglas Bauer about his novel: The Beckoning World. Set in the early 1900's we find coal miner Earl Dunham, toiling in a coal mine six days a week and spending Sundays pitching in minor league baseball games. When a major-league scout signs Earl he thinks his dream has come true, then he meets Emily Marchand.
