Even the most famous of teams has been misremembered, misrepresented, misunderstood, and otherwise missed through history's many tellings and re-tellings, and this book is an entertaining antidote to all the above concerning the New York Yankees. With surprising analysis and gleeful wit, it examines everything from the underestimated to the overrated, along the way providing perspectives on the Bronx Bombers' authentic legacy in terms of stats and society, performances and personalities, comparisons and culture.
Biographical Note: Peter Handrinos is a graduate of Yale University, a member of the Society for American Baseball Research, and the author of Best New York Sports Arguments. He lives in New York City.
