In the second installment of The Adventures of Ace Preston series, Ace Preston recently retired after working almost four decades in law enforcement and twenty-five years in the U.S. Army Reserve. Adventure and excitement await Ace as he makes plans to check off long sought-after items from his retirement bucket list. First up is a tour of a major league baseball park.
Ace's first destination is Wrigley Field in Chicago! Decked out in his best red, white, and blue jersey and ball cap, Ace tours the stadium and, to his surprise, finds an old metal numbered piece of the manual scoreboard lodged in the ivy-covered wall.
Returning the found number to the scoreboard keeper lands Ace inside an iconic scoreboard with time-traveling capabilities. Amazed and intrigued, Ace gets a chance to observe historical baseball games and sporting events of the past. Ace learns that the windows of observation also allow him to exit and participate in the time-travel events he witnesses.
Join Ace Preston in The Time Traveling Scoreboard on his exciting journey filled with adventure and mystery dating back to the first game ever played on the field in the early 1900s through 2025.

About the Author
Robert P. Chappell, Jr., grew up with a passion for baseball. As a young boy, he played in both t-shirt and little leagues. While playing high school baseball, Robert participated in the Babe Ruth League, which revealed his talent to scouts with the Cincinnati Reds. After contemplating an incredible offer, Robert chose to forego his dream of playing baseball to dedicate his life to public service.
Robert graduated from Radford University in Virginia with a degree in Criminal Justice. He selected a career path of service in law enforcement and the U.S. Army Reserve. While serving in the military, Robert obtained his Master of Science in Strategic Studies at the U.S. Army War College in Carlisle, Pennsylvania.
The Blacksburg Police Department in Virginia hired Robert as a police officer in 1985. After working two years, Robert was hired by the Virginia State Police where he worked for over thirty-six years, retiring as a State Police Captain.
Robert retired from the U.S. Army Reserve as a Lieutenant Colonel after twenty-five years, including deployment during Operation Iraqi Freedom. He is the recipient of numerous military awards, including the Bronze Star and the Combat Action Badge.
Robert has authored four books, Child Identity Theft: What Every Parent Needs to Know (Roman & Littlefield), Rock Painting Therapy: A Soldier's Journey to Improved Mental Health (Gatekeeper Press), The Patriot Pitcher (Gatekeeper Press), and The Time Traveling Scoreboard (Gatekeeper Press).
Robert and his family live in Virginia.
