Summary: Game by game details of the Babe's first major league team
Review: I've read about 12 books on Babe Ruth, and I've always believed that his best years were with the Red Sox. This book covers that era of his career in more detail than I've found elsewhere. There was nothing really new, except for a few pictures I had not seen. However, it acknowledges the accomplishments by the Babe before going to the yankess, which is often forgotten.

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: A Must Have For Any Baseball Fan
Review: There have been numerous publications that give us Ruth the "Yankee." Having read most of what has been offered this particular book shed's light on the George Ruth few have ever had an opportunity to realize. From his day's in a boys home to his assent into the "Bigs." As well as his community service with children to the obligation that he felt to keep the local pubs in business. Ruth set the stage for athletes to give back and be yourself in the process. You'll also discover the truth behind "The Curse of The Bambino." This is truly an "In Depth Chronicle" of his start in the majors. A Great Read!!!!!!!!!!!

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: The Forgotten Career of Babe Ruth
Review: Well he didn't spend much time here, but for the short time that he was here, he was the most feared two-way player in all of baseball.I mean he pitched well and he hit well, with being the best pitcher in all of baseball and setting the Major League record of 29 home runs in 1919, the last year with the Red Sox. I'm sure that everyone knows that Ruth was probably the greatest hitter with the Yankees, but people always tend to forget the great career that he had with the Boston Red Sox. I hope that many people read this book and see how truly good he was, not only as a great hitter, but how amazing of a pitcher he was.
