The Illustrated History of Mickey Mantle 1 review Gene Schoor
Replica Books, 2002
Complete Disaster
The sports world needs a definitive photo book about Mantle. This isn't it. The photos are very poor reproductions of familiar images found clearly reproduced in other books. Here, they look like 50th generation copies. I returned the book without reading it but noticed that a sequence of ...

1952 World Series (New York Yankees vs. Brooklyn Dodgers) 1 review Mickey Mantle, Jackie Robinson
Major League Baseball Producti, 1993
Yankees beat Dodgers like in 47 and 49
The cry of wait till next year continues in Brooklyn. They also lost to the Yanks in 1947 and 1949. But they continued to lose in 1953 and it was only in 1955 that they could claim the championships.
I would like to see this one again. I am sure it had many exciting moments. In one game ...

Major League Baseball Producti, 1993
Yankees Topple Reds In 1961 Fall Classic
+ What happened after Roger Maris hit home run number 61*
The 1961 World Series began just days after Yankees' slugger Roger Maris swatted his record-breaking 61st home run, besting Babe Ruth's long-standing single-season round-tripper mark.
Maris, however, was not a major force in the Yankees' dominating victory over the Cincinnati Reds in the '61 ...

Mickey Mantle's Greatest Hits 2 reviews David S. Nuttall
S.P.I. Books, 1998
A Proud Keeper In My Collection
+ GOOD JOB OF DOCUMENTING MICK'S HOMERS
I saw Mickey Mantle hit three or four home runs at Yankee Stadium, but there was one I clearly recall - his 30th home run at the last regular season game of 1962. This is the only book I've found to bring me back to that day, that game, that pitcher, with just enough detail to enhance my memory. A ...

Good for getting an idea abot him.
I did a book report on this two years ago. I the whole book. But had Alot of bad language in it. It tells you alot about him but not great for young children to read for reports. I read that when I was 10.

1957 World Series: Milwaukee Braves vs. New York Yankees 2 reviews Hank Aaron, Mickey Mantle
Major League Baseball Producti, 1993
Lew Burdette and Warren Spahn shut down the Yanks in 7
As a Yankee fan I hated this series. The Braves had a young upstart lineup with Aaron, Bruton, and Covington in the outfield and Eddie Matthews at third, Johnny Logan at short, Red Scheindienst at second, Frank Torre at first (Joe Torre's older brother) and Del Crandall behind the plate. Of course ...
