SynopsisMickey Mantle, the hayseed kid from Spavinaw,  Oklahoma, was in his sixth year with the Yankees. He  was already America's homerun king. He was about  to become a national hero. 1956 would be a  record-breaking season: the golden summer fans would  remember forever. Now Mickey Mantle brings it all  back just the way it happened--spectacular playing  on field, crazy hijinks with Whitey Ford and Billy  Martin off. There never was a time like it before  in baseball. There never will be again. It was  magic. From the Paperback edition.

  • Baseball -- Always On My Mind

    This is a wonderful trip down memory lane and highly recommended for anyone who remembers MLB during those endless summers. Here is proof that, while football is the most exciting sport, baseball will always be America's past time. Name one other sport where Americans today are talking about players who took the field 75 years ago. You can't. Baseball stands alone.
