Editorial Reviews
From AudioFile
This book does far more than tell the facts and myths of Babe Ruth's life. It chronicles a time when baseball was played only on grass and a western road trip for East Coast teams meant a train ride to St. Louis. Although Tom Parker is probably not a baseball fanÐÐI'm guessing from a few minor pronunciation gaffs and misreadings of statsÐÐhe does a fine job bringing the Babe to life. His tenor voice is well suited for the mostly male cast. His pacing and continuity are good on this long program. P.B.J.

Sports Illustrated

The best biography ever written about an American sports figure.
