Summary:
No sports team in history has a following quite like that of the New York Yankees. With 38 pennants and 26 World Series victories, the Yankees are the most successful baseball team of all time -- and the first name in team sports. Featuring more than 100 authentic voices from Yankee history, Bombers retells their colorful stories, from the unparalleled abilities and appetites of Babe Ruth to the professional excellence that characterizes the current dynasty. Here also are accounts of all the Yankee legends -- including DiMaggio, Mantle, Marls, Martin, and Jackson -- as well as new information about today's stars. Yankee fans will love Bombers, but this is a book for all baseball fans. Bombers illuminates a unique part of baseball history the way it happened on the field, in the stands, and in the hearts of players and fans.
