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".

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.

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!

My husband loved this book. It is a great little stocking stuffer for any Yankee fan. Very inexpensive for what you get.

This was among an assortment of Yankee books I received for Christmas this year. It's a compact and quick read full of important Yankee lore and facts. Even though I already knew much of the information included, it's always great satisfying fun to see it again especially rated numerically in importance. I'm not certain the author's list of 101 things is necessarily in order of importance but when there are SO many events and individuals to recall, it's challenging to even limit it to 101. You can read this book in an hour or less. The photographs are excellent, many of which I hadn't seen before and I own a lot of Yankee books. If you're passionate about the New York Yankees like I am, this is a nice addition to your collection of Yankee books.101 Reasons to Love the Yankees (Revised)

I bought this for my 8 year old son, who is a die-hard Yankees fan, and he loves it! Every page has a quote from a Yankee legend. There are great pictures on every page as well. My son particularly likes the end of the book which lists 10 reasons to hate the Red Sox!

Regardless of when you became a Yankee fan (it could have been the Babe, the Clipper, the Mick, Yogi, Donnie Baseball, or Derek) this is a "must have." Brief (one page, usually) photos and stories about the most illustreous team in American sports history are outstanding, and I'd quibble with only a couple of comments here and there.

By the way, it's a great book for thos opportunities when you only need a couple of minutes to read something other than an old magazine, if you get my drift.

Any Yankee fan would love it as a gift - if they have not already purchased one for themselves.

Bought this for the die-hard Yankee Fan and he loves this DVD

This book, from this Yankee fan's perspective is a waste of time. Author could have done better with 25 reasons to love the Yanks, instead of digging and scratching for the additional 76. The 10 reasons to hate the Red Sox were even more lame. The book itself is very small - too small in size/scale. Go Yanks!
