My Nebraska is intended to romanticize growing up in rural Nebraska by someone who has not lived in the state for about six decades. It will bring back tender memories for anyone who lives in, has lived in or knows someone who has grown up in the state. Nebraska can be overlooked by many in this country, and this book will bring to life the wholesome lifestyle of this area. It may also hit home for other people from rural, small-town settings whose home has been in other states. I hope the book will bring unique perspective and re-kindle a great many memories for people of most any age.

Reviews

“Bob Wirz writes a wistful and endearing love letter to Nebraska filled with memories shared by generations raised in small towns throughout the Midwest.” - Shari R. Veil, University of Nebraska-Lincoln College of Journalism and Mass Communications

“As a fellow midwesterner (Iowa), I know how much my roots, family and community mean to me. No one bleeds Nebraska like my mentor and friend Bob Wirz, and he certainly knows how to tell a compelling story.” - Scott Reifert, Senior Vice President, Chicago White Sox

“When we chose Bob Wirz to be a member of the Hall of Fame we knew we had a qualified baseball man and a deeply-rooted Nebraskan as well as a solid wordsmith.” - Ron Douglas, Director, Nebraska Baseball Hall of Fame

“I visit the Sandhills often and each time I drive thru Halsey I reflect to my times spent with Bob Wirz, who once was a resident of this tiny town. Bob is a longtime friend of mine through baseball who has a great passion for our state. I especially enjoy our mutual appreciation of the Sandhills' beauty and uniqueness.” - Jim Abel, Owner, Lincoln Saltdogs Baseball Team

About the Author

A Native Nebraskan raised in the Sandhills village of Halsey, Bob Wirz has been a media specialist in the world of sports for about 60 years, with heavy concentration on professional baseball. Wirz is a graduate of the University of Nebraska, a proud supporter of the school's Department of Mass Communications, and an avid follower of anything in Husker Nation as well as his native state. Bob’s early work experience included six years as publicity director for the Kansas City Royals, and a background in newspaper, radio and television work. One of Wirz’s more intriguing tasks was running Major League Baseball’s media office and serving as chief spokesman for Commissioners Bowie Kuhn and Peter Ueberroth from 1974 to 1985. His duties included coordinating media activities for the annual All-Star Game and World Series. He has run Wirz & Associates, a sports public relations and consulting company, since 1985. He also wrote a column, the Independent Baseball Insider, for a dozen years. Bob published his first book, "The Passion of Baseball", which covers much of his experience in the sport as well as his business life, in 2016. Bob was proudly inducted into the Nebraska Baseball Hall of Fame a short time later. He and his wife Maybeth reside in Stratford, CT. They have four children and five grandchildren.

Go dog toys are the best!
Size: Large, Color: Dinos Frills (Pink)
These are the only stuffed toys I buy for my Pittie because they are so well made. Even when she unstuffs them, she plays with them forever!

My dog loves these toys.
Size: Mini, Color: Gator (Pink)
Not a huge toy, nor is my dog. But we have lots of goDog toys. Practically indestructible and my dog likes to carry these in his mouth and bring them onto the foot of our bed. Brilliant colors and good squeaker but my dog is afraid of the squeak. Fair value for cost.

Our XL dogs love this! Highly recommend them! Highly recommend. Not for aggressive chewers but our big dogs don't destroy their toys. They cherish them. Great for play and cuddling. Not to loud either. Very cute.

When they said strong...
...they weren't kidding. Our pup would chew through everything she could get her sharks teeth into. Like my arms. Nothing lasted as long as a week or maybe two. But she has had Dino for months now. She loves him. He is the go to toy for when she wants to play tug. The material used to make this toy is every bit as strong as the seller claims. I will definitely buy from them again. And I will not wait for this one to rip. I may be waiting a long time. If your pup likes to tear stuff apart, feel safe in buying this toy, UPDATE: 2/9/2023 Dino finally succumbed to the torture. His back ripped open and despite trying to repair him with ordinary thread he couldn't withstand the pressure, His stuffing was removed and spread all over the living room. Completely emptied he is still a good toy. Strong enough to withstand the forceful play of tug-o-war. Only thing I would suggest is to use something stronger when closing his back. The rest of him is great. I will be replacing him soon.

Not so tough
Size: Mini, Color: Gator (Pink)
I bought this because I dog sit. The dog chews up every. Single. Toy. So I bought it since it was cheap and it can be in the “chunk” (the dog’s name) toy box. It is not durable at all. He tore it up just as fast as a cheaply made toy. Chunk LOVES it! He would not stop playing with it. He loves the squeakers, it is a perfect size for him to throw it up in the air and chase it, and he loved ripping the legs off. It is good for my husband and I because there is little to no fluff. However, it is the perfect size to drop behind the couch and not be able to get. So once he drops it behind the couch, he won’t get it until morning. Now for my dog’s rating. My dog loves this toy too. He is much more gentle with toys (he has $5 Walmart toys we bought him back in 2020 in perfect condition that he plays with them every day). Before Chunk came over for the weekend, my dog Ted played with this. Ted is a larger small dog and chunk is a smaller small dog. And it is still the perfect size for both dogs.
