Summary: Twentieth-century American history through a baseball window
Review: Whether you love the Yankees or hate them, you'll enjoy this team history that is woven into the fabric of americana. This is much more than another good baseball book. You'll feel as if you actually lived through the decades (1903-1996) and were fortunate enough to attend, listen to, or at least read the next day's newspaper describing each of the New York opening-day contests
