Summary: I'm Proud of You Daddy!
Review: I am not partial to loving this book because it is about me and my Daddy wrote it but because it is an awsome book. I have read it some 20 times already. As a first time author I found that my Dad had an amazing ablilty that I didn't know existed in him. He is passionate about his life and doing well. As far as Holton's review....this book is not directly about his wrong doings and his apologies. If you were reading between the lines you would see that this book encompuses baseball, live, love, loss, heartache and remorse in the creativly written words that grace the pages. I think that you will enjoy this book and its stories. Just sit back and read it with an open heart and and mind and allow the players of the pages to enter your life and you will find yourself cheering for the home team......i love you daddy...and am prouder than you will every know....Mandi Hohenstein hottatti00@aol.com

Summary: Outstanding Book from an Outstanding Man
Review: I have read this book and am going to recommend it to my children and their coaches to read also. This is an Outstanding Book from an Outstanding Man whether people believe that from the mistakes he has made in his life. We all make mistakes, some pay more than others, he has paid dearly. I know Kurt from a long time back and know what is in this book is actually how he feels in his heart. He really is a WONDERFUL MAN that I take great pleasure in knowing. He has actually given me great advice and probably saved my life. He knows what I am talking about and that's enough. Thank you Kurt for everything you've ever done.

Summary: Homerun from a foul ball
Review: Like a phenix rising from the ashes Hohenstein manages to pick himself up from his once major mistake and soar. One is able to see his true character come out within the pages of the book via the roles of a caring father, husband, friend, and coach. He admits flaws even at this good point in his life, demonstrating how easy it really is to go astray from the path of life. Using the baseball metaphor the reader is easily dragged back to our own nostolgic days of little league. In the process one is forced to deal with great memories and demons that in many ways seem to parralel that of the author. In the end one is able to understand human nature and baseball a little better. Excellent work.

Summary: Little League Essential
Review: One word sums up this book, irresponsibility. Hohenstein stumbles through 200 akward pages rambling about baseball. It seems like he tries to encroach on the reader that he has learned from his mistakes- all he has learned is the proper way to malinger. At no point does he acknowledge his role in his past crimes. Rather he seems to want to sugar coat it with what a great person he really is deep down. There is no evolution of character. We do see the demise of a man, but by his own accord. He fails to at any point to admit fault for his actions or how they have effected others. Even in the role of a coach he has flaws. I wonder what he really learned from little league after all. Additionally, the stories have no flow with one another. The entire books seems to merely be a lament over a lost existence. The only purpose the book does serve is to reinforce that individuals such as this should be kept behind bars for the betterment of society.
