Babe by Robert W Creamer
I swing big, with everything I've got. I hit big or I miss big. I like to live as big as I can. -- Babe Ruth Babe Ruth is without a doubt the most famous character ever produced by the sport of baseball. A legendary player, world-famous for his hitting prowess, he transcended the sport to enter the mainstream of American life as an authentic folk hero.In this extraordinary biography, noted sportswriter Robert W. Creamer reveals the complex man behind the sports legend. From Ruth's early days in a Baltimore orphanage, to the glory days with the Yankees, to his later years, Creamer has drawn a classic portrait of an American original.
In a tribute to the game that is also part memoir, Creamer, one of the best and most perceptive writers on baseball, remembers the baseball--and other matters--of 1941. He is the author or writer of a number of books, including Stengel: His Life and Times, Rhubarb in the Catbird Seat, Jocko, and The Quality of Courage, all published by Bison Books.
