DiMaggio by Morris Engelberg
Widely considered one of the greatest baseball players of all time, Joe DiMaggio transcended sports and was a true American icon. Beyond his public life in a New York Yankee uniform and his glamorous if brief marriage to Marilyn Monroe, DiMaggio was an intensely private individual who rarely, if ever, revealed himself to biographers attempting to tell his life story. Until now. Morris Engelberg, DiMaggio's closest friend and confidante over the last 16 years of his life, had rare access and insight to the man behind the legend. Teamed up with longtime AP journalist Marv Schneider, Engelberg corrects inaccuracies in recent biographies of DiMaggio and reveals the true, inside story of the great "Joltin' Joe."
Morris Engelberg was Joe DiMaggio's business manager, attorney, and closest friend during the last years of the great ballplayer's life. Marv Schneider was a sports writer and editor for the Associated Press, covering the World Series, the Olympics, and other major sporting events.
