A Spur Award-winning Author
A Western Heritage Award-winning Author

In his new novel, Boggs manages to deftly combine three American icons: the Old West, the Civil War, and baseball when it was only beginning to be the great American pastime. During the 1946 World Series, ninety-nine-year-old Win MacNaughton recalls the greatest baseball game of his entire life between a ragtag collection of Union prisoners of war against a squad of Confederate prison guards.

Johnny D. Boggs has written more than twenty short stories published in magazines and anthologies, including Louis L'Amour Western Magazine. He won the Western Heritage Wrangler Award from the National Cowboy and Western Heritage Museum for his novel Spark on the Prairie (2003).
