The Busher's Honeymoon is a novel by Ring W. Lardner, first published in 1918. It tells the story of Jack Keefe, a baseball player who marries his sweetheart, the beautiful and wealthy Miss Blanche Betz. The newlyweds embark on a honeymoon tour of the country, during which Jack's antics and misadventures on and off the field continue to cause trouble. Along the way, Jack meets a cast of colorful characters, including a group of hoboes, a traveling salesman, and a team of rival ballplayers. As Jack struggles to balance his love for Blanche with his passion for baseball, he must also confront the realities of life as a professional athlete, including the temptations of fame and fortune, and the constant pressure to perform. With its witty dialogue, vivid characters, and sharp commentary on American culture and society, The Busher's Honeymoon is a classic of early 20th century literature, and a must-read for fans of baseball and American fiction.THIS 44 PAGE ARTICLE WAS EXTRACTED FROM THE BOOK: You Know Me Al: A Busher's Letters, by Ring W.
