About This Item
New York: Harper & Row Publishers, 1984. A perceptive and vivid look at a single team during a single memorable season (1983). Geoffrey Stokes enables the reader to understand why George Steinbrenner was a very successful baseball enterpreneur as well as a problematic leader and why Billy Martin's team tend to be either brilliant or flat. He also provides vivid and astute portraits of figures such s Steve Kemp, Don Taylor, Roy Smalley, Willie Randolph, and Goose Gossage. This book is full of insights and in-depth analyses of what makes a ball club tick. The foreword is followed by the 1983 Season Chronology. One of the eleven chapters 'The Ghost of Thurman Munson' deals with choosing a leader after his death in 1979. Name to half title page. A bright clean copy in a price-intact caricature illustrated dust jacket by Gil Eisner.. First Edition, First Printing. Hard Cover. Near Fine/Very Good.
