Major League Dad: A Daughter's Cherished Memories

By Bill Gilbert and Julia Ruth Stevens

Book Overview

Major League Dad is a collection of personal and poignant memories by the only surviving member of the family of baseball's immortal and beloved star, Babe Ruth. Julia Ruth Stevens tells the moving, sentimental, and humorous story of her life as the daughter of one of America's most revered personalities, with never-before-seen glimpses of the family life of a superstar: dancing with "Daddy" in their living room, the Christmases that meant so much to him, the story behind the feud with the Lou Gehrig family, and his devotion to the religious brothers who rescued him from the boyhood environment that was leading him down the wrong path.
