The Georgia Peach in action.,
By A Customer
This review is from: Ty Cobb: His Tumultuous Life and Times (Paperback)
The best things about this book were the ease of reading, the excellent photos from various stages of Cobb's life, and the concise focus on the man and his career. It is a fine book for a quick overview of the "Georgia Peach" even if it lacks details on the many personal aspects of his life that can be found in Stump and Alexander's books. The focus is more on his baseball career and stats than on the man himself. The numerous photos of TY were reason enough for me to get the book.

This review is from: Ty Cobb: His Tumultuous Life and Times (Paperback)
This book is one of the best baseball biographies ever written. Bak's narrative is superb. He avoids the Cobb caricature that has become his legacy and replaces it with a thorough, insightful record of the life of one of baseball's all-time best players and most interesting characters. Combine that with extensive statistical data and an amazing collection of photographs spanning all of Cobb's life, and you have a biography that any baseball fan will enjoy.
