Seller's Description:
Good in Fair jacket. 352 pages. Illustrated endpapers. DJ is worn, soiled, torn and chipped. Charles Einstein (August 2, 1926-March 7, 2007) was a newspaperman and sportswriter. He was also the author of the novel The Bloody Spur, on which the film While the City Sleeps by Fritz Lang was based. His father was the comedian Harry Einstein. He was the older half-brother of comedic actors Albert Brooks and Bob Einstein, better known by his stage name "Super Dave Osborne". Einstein was also the editor of a series of compilations of baseball writings, titled The Fireside Book of Baseball. To a generation of fans, Willie Mays was the greatest ballplayer they had ever seen. He was the first player to hit fifty home runs and steal twenty bases in a single season. Mays played for the New York Giants, San Francisco Giants, and New York Mets, and in his glory days with the Giants he not only set the major league mark for consecutive seasons by appearing in 150 games or more but by winning his two MVP awards a record twelve seasons apart. This volume replays the most dramatic moments of the Say Hey Kid's career--from the 1951 Miracle Giants to the Amazing Mets of 1973--and takes us inside the lives of Ruth, DiMaggio, Aaron, Durocher, and others along the way. Einstein offers a compelling and complete look at Mays: as a youth in racist Birmingham, a triumphant symbol of African American success, a sports hero lionized by fans, and yet all the while, still a very human figure destined to play for two decades amid baseball's Golden Age.
