Becoming Mr. October

Becoming Mr. October - Reggie Jackson, Kevin Baker A delightfully fun quick read, meant as a rejoinder to the Bronx is Burning miniseries on ESPN a few years back. Good for people who were yankee fans back in those days or those who have studied the Bronx Zoo of the late 70's. Reggie's take on Billy Martin's self destructive tendencies is intriguing to say the least. I would recommend to those who haven't read about the yankees of that era to read other books and then Mr. Jackson's take as I'm sure the truth lies somewhere in the middle.
