Praise for MICKEY AND WILLIE:
"Mickey and Willie hits the sweet spot...In rich detail--modulated among the funny, the mundane and the mournful--Barra tells the stories of two men [whose] lives, from their triumphs to their tragedies, exemplify an era not just in American baseball but of American history." --Chicago Tribune "[A] well-told story...Barra explores in depth the remarkable similarities between these two great New York center fielders." --New York Times Book Review "A colorful, absorbing account of men who became idolized without being known...packed with good stories from inside and outside baseball [and] a worthy reminder of how remarkable these two players were--together and separately." --Floyd Skloot, Boston Globe
