Florida Spring Training Guide Debuts OnlinePublisher puts complete text of popular guidebook on the WebJanuary 23, 2008 (ORLANDO, FL) A popular guidebook that profiles every baseball stadium in Florida's 'Grapefruit League' has been posted, in its entirety, on the Internet. The Intrepid Traveler, publisher of Florida Spring Training: Your Guide To Touring the Grapefruit League by Alan Byrd has made the complete text of the book available to Internet surfing baseball fans at: www.theotherorlando.com/contents/fst Author Alan Byrd visits every Spring Training camp in Florida. He tastes every hot dog and every specialty food at the stadiums and samples the beer. He sits in box seats and bleachers, tries the standing room, and checks for sun and shade. He tries for autographs at every park and reads every program. And he checks out all the great restaurants and nearby attractions to make sure fans will have plenty to do before and after the game. "It's a tough job," says Byrd, "but I'm willing to make the sacrifice." And just why is his publisher giving the book away online? "Apparently, experience has shown that making the complete text available online increases sales of the actual book," Byrd explains. "I hope they're right."
