"""If you're a fan of A League of Their Own, you'll love all the behind the scenes info, and if you're not already a fan, this book will make you want to watch immediately! Erin brilliantly weaves juicy stories with the triumphant tale of getting the historic film made. I loved it. Perhaps there's no crying in baseball, but you may shed a tear or two of joy while reading this wonderful book!""--Danny Pellegrino, author of How Do I Un-Remember This? ""Baseball stories are never just about baseball, Erin Carlson reminds us. And Carlson's baseball story, about the making of A League of Their Own, is about the business of Hollywood, the telling of women's stories, the magic that ensues when the right performers meet the right director and the right script, and what, precisely, takes place when Madonna, at the height of her fame, decamps for the third-largest city in Indiana to shoot a movie. No Crying in Baseball is sheer, joyous fun, studded with insight into the grit and determination it took then--and now!--to make a movie that celebrated the accomplishments of women.""--Saul Austerlitz, author Generation Friends"
