>When I was just starting out, I had the misfortune of reading
>a magazine article by Moehringer called "Resurrecting the Champ."
>It was a boxing story, but it was also a story about fathers,
>and, more than that, it was the most perfect story I could ever
>imagine. It made me want to quit writing. Now, with The Tender
>Bar, his memoir of a heartbreaking, ultimately triumphant life
>steeped in the rhythms of a Long Island bar, Moehringer has done

>about fathers (his is mostly absent) and made it better than his
>first. In content and style, the man has found a new perfect,
>leaving the rest of us with only so much farther to go....
