IN THE SUMMER OF 1962, 11- and 12-year-old boys seeking diversion and direction in their small, ethnically-rich working-class town discovered the great American pastime-baseball.
Families from Yugoslavia, Italy, Mexico, and many others came to America looking for a new life and landed in the small port community of San Pedro, California-considered one of the toughest, most irascible, and at times corrupt seaside port towns in the country. The immigrant parents fought to keep their children on track so they could thrive in their new country.
The Boys of '62
is a heart-warming story of fifteen scrappy kids trying to find their way among longshoremen and fishermen who combined their work ethic, their skills, and their hearts in order to make an improbable run at the most coveted trophy and championship-the Little League World Series.
