Summary: One of the few books I've ever read twice!
Comment: This is one of the best books I've ever read. I very rarely read a book twice, but I would like to get a copy of this so I could read it every few years. A fascinating story of a man's travel back in time to the early 1900's in New York City. Also of interest to baseball fans would be the references to the early New York teams. History buffs will enjoy references to actual persons of the time, such as Jay Gould and Teddy Roosevelt. Very enjoyable!
Rating: 4
Summary: Imaginative, Entertaining, And Original Thriller
Comment: Here is a "time travel" adventure without time travel as the hero relives the past through visions of ancestral memories. A good plot, interesting characters, and well-written. My only reason for not giving this five stars was that it becomes a bit overlong. This book could have said and done all it had and still been had 80% less verbose. The author is recommended to all readers. I liked some of his other books a little bit better - especially "Shadow Box." You can count on John R Maxim for a good read every time out.

Summary: Others have done it much, much better
Comment: Without question, the best mix of time-travel and love for both the city and the people in it is Jack Finney's Time and Again. Time and Again is the book Maxim wished he had written. Every page of Time Out of Mind reminded me of how each situation was better handled and more interesting in Finney's book and it's sequel.
Certainly there are differences between Maxim and Finney, but its clear who Maxim read while thinking about his book. Time Out of Mind is ok, but instead of having to time travel back and stop yourself from potentially wasting valuable time, grab some of Maxim's other books... and while you are at it, grab a copy of Finney's Time and Again.
