Product Info Reviews

Description:

Delightful photographs--including a hilarious one of the legendary Yankees manager gazing into a baseball as though it were a crystal ball--enliven virtually every page of this affectionate portrait of the man who led the Bronx Bombers to ten pennants between 1948 and 1960. Sports historian Richard Bak does a nice job of capturing Stengel's folksy charm, as well as his strategic abilities and shrewd eye for talent. Inserts such as "Stengelese: A Selected Glossary" add to the fun.
