Jane Leavy - The Last Boy

I need to catch up on the books I've read this year so far, but in the meantime I want to say I am currently reading this fabulous new biography of Mickey Mantle. The Mick was the great baseball hero of my time--the 60's. He stood above all others. When Mantle came to bat, there was always expectation. He might hit the ball a mile or he might strike out. It was exciting either way. Mantle played from 1951 to 1969.
