Born into a naval family in 1945, Robert (Bob) Gaines was raised in California, Rhode Island, and Virginia. Even as a child, he had an obsession for recording his stray thoughts into hundreds of notebooks. After graduating from San Diego State, Bob would spend a decade as an award-winning sports columnist before moving east, eventually retiring from Bucknell University in 2012. The Brave Historian is Bob’s fifth book. Other works include The Three Mathewsons (Hidden Shelf 2012); The Christian Gentleman: How Christy Mathewson’s Faith and Fastball Forever Changed Baseball (Roman & Littlefield 2015); Loose Chronicles: Dog from a Distant Universe (Hidden Shelf 2017); and One Christmas Lasts Forever (Hidden Shelf 2018).
