Baseball – The framework through which everything in America is interpreted

When Victor Baltov, Jr., noticed a lack of interest in people with their “if ya’ can’t beat ‘em, join ‘em” attitudes, he was inspired to write Baseball is America: A Child of Baseball (AuthorHouse).  Knowing that, regardless of felonies, our current culture accepts and embraces sports stars saddened him and made him realize that no longer is baseball a standard-bearer for merit founded on Christian principles in this country.

Baseball has been tied to everything good about America – where anything was possible thanks to its free enterprise system.  But things have changed since the dawn of the ‘Synthetic Era’ in the mid-eighties, with its merging of technology and strong secularization of principles and values.  Right and wrong have become fake concepts, where winning has been redefined as right and losing as wrong, and the immoral ‘good ‘ol boy’ network has been replaced by a whole culture of corruption!  Baltov courageously writes the truth about what is happening in our great country today, despite the fact it has become socially illegal to do so under the guise of ‘political correctness.’

Baseball is America is a story of the life of Victor Baltov, Jr., son of two patriots (a Daughter of the American Revolution and a son of the Bolshevik Revolution) and an amateur baseball player from the Glory Days through the Synthetic Era, and covers topics ranging from his life and baseball to American politics, corporate America and culture war issues.  Laced with just the right amount of satirical humor, this well-written and thought-provoking work outlines Baltov’s desire to get readers to reclaim the American strike zone based upon its founding principles as a noble country by electing officials who still believe in the Constitution.
