THE BEST MICKEY MANTLE BOOK EVER * From Tony Castro, the award-winning, bestselling author of Mickey Mantle: America's Prodigal Son and DiMag & Mick, comes the concluding book of his Mickey Mantle Biographical Trilogy -- the man of whom even Joe DiMaggio said "to say there was anyone better in the game, to say there was anyone better than Mantle is what we Italians would call 'un sacco di stronzate,' a load of crap." "An American literary stylistic masterpiece... Tony Castro paints Mickey Mantle with the pinstripe magic of Garcia Marquez phantasmagoria and realism..." -- Tom Wolfe In Mantle: The Best There Ever Was, Mickey Mantle biographer Tony Castro brings to life the man who is arguably not only the greatest ballplayer of his time but also the greatest ballplayer of all time.
