The Best Team Money Could Buy

For one unforgettable season, Reggie Jackson, Billy Martin, George Steinbrenner, and a supporting cast of some of the best men in baseball kept New York Yankees fans amused, confused, and ultimately jubilant on and off the field. • Steve Jacobson, who covered the Yankees for Newsday, a Long Island newspaper, kept a journal of events from spring training in Fort Lauderdale through the last game at Yankee Stadium when the Yankees won the World Series. • Jacobson's efforts produced this compelling and entertaining book centered on some of baseball's biggest stars and egomaniacs.
