Back in the Game: One Gunman, Countless Heroes, and the Fight for My Life

Award winning Journalist and author Jeffrey Stern joins US Congressman Steve Scalise and bring to life the June 2017 morning that Scalise was shot in Virginia as his congressional baseball team practiced for their annual charity game against congressional Democrats.

Scalise describes the harrowing moments when a shooter opened fire at the baseball field, sending players scattering and his own protective detail scrambling to get to the shooter.

True to his Republican status, he studiously avoids discussing anything that has to do with firearms or firearms laws. Scalise's book focuses on the people on and off the field who helped him and others recover.

This book is a book about recovery, not shootings statistics or gun control. As long as you know that going in, readers should appreciate this intimate look at a shooting and recovery.
