DOPEY BASTID is the sequel to “8” Center Field in New York, 1951 – 1957, the historical fiction account of Willie Mays, Mickey Mantle and Duke Snider, as told by three thirteen year old friends in 1957. The ‘best buds’ discuss their baseball idols as they complete a book report in their 8th grade class. Well, the three friends are now at it again twenty years later. One of the three has become a noted sportswriter for the NY Daily News and decides to compose a sports novel. His two amigos offer their help as the recollections of dumb decisions made by players, managers, owners and sportswriters are brought to light. The true accounts of such blunders, predominantly in baseball, football, basketball and boxing will have you scratching your head, as you laugh out loud, perhaps shed a tear, and reflect about the meaning of friendship. Oh yeah, I guarantee that you call at least one individual described herein a “dopey b-------”!

BLESS ME FATHER has captured the curiosity and evoked enthusiasm of law enforcement professionals and a former Catholic priest. Bless Me Father is a departure from Lou Saulinos previous books about growing up with the love of sports. His fi rst crime story hits it out of the ballpark.a great read and defi nitely a page turner. - John E. Sullivan Det. NYPD Ret. I liked this book. It is a tough, smart and compassionate story. There are memorable characters. I know of no one who could have written a book like this. Lou has the real-life experience and the heart to give all of us the life changing thoughts. - P. Olsinski, Teacher, Counselor, Student of People Family, families---intertwined by: love and protection of each other, right or wrong; sports, sorrow and guilt, Bless Me Father entertains with a little sports history; but also is thought provoking---what, how do you honor faith, a memory and vows to family. An enjoyable weekend read. - Cecile T. Woodward, Assistant Police Chief, Phoenix PD Ret.

Three classic novels in one volume: Summer in Williamsburg (1934), Homage to Blenholt (1936), and Low Company (1937). Fuchs wrote, "I devoted myself simply to the tenement: the life in the hallways, the commotion at the dumbwaiters, the assortment of characters in the building, their strivings and preoccupations, their troubles." These novels are as alive today as the day they were first printed, as exuberant. There are few novelists in America today who possess Fuchs's talent, his energy, his sense of life.
