An interesting fact book,
By Joelly Woelly "shadow1407" (Hillsborough, New Jersey) - See all my reviews
This review is from: 101 Reasons to Love the Yankees (Hardcover)
I got this book for Christmas. It makes a nice gift for a Yankee fan. It has a lot of interesting facts dating back to the beginning of the team. Also, the photos are pretty cool. I wish it was longer though. For those interested in reading a full book about the recent dynasty years, check out "The Last Night of the Yankee Dynasty".

Yankees Fans will enjoy this book!!!,
This review is from: 101 Reasons to Love the Yankees (Hardcover)
My young Yankees fan got this book for Christmas. I caught him with it the other day -- reading each of the reasons to love the Yankees. My Yankees fan is only seven -- but it's a book that can be enjoyed by the young and old alike, as long as you Love the Yankees.

Good coffee table book, should have more on hating the Red Sox,

This review is from: 101 Reasons to Love the Yankees (Hardcover)
I gave this book to my boyfriend for Christmas, and he really enjoys it. It is more of a coffee table book. Each reason for loving the Yankees is about a sentence and is accompanied by a picture. The book, however, should have more about hating the Red Sox!
