I have a patron who is looking for a book written by a journalist who
wrote for a magazine like "The Outdoors", "Sports Illustrated", or
"Outside." He persuaded his magazine to give him an advance, so he would
be able to write a book. He was forty something at the time and possibly
lived in New Jersey. He went back to his hometown (maybe in the midwest)
and played baseball with his high school team. He traveled to Florida and
learned surfing. He tried to date his high school sweetheart , but his
wife wouldn't have it. The author even had a full body CAT scan. The
patron thought the title of the book was something like "Second Time
Around".

Thanks for all your help
