A Proud Keeper In My Collection

I saw Mickey Mantle hit three or four home runs at Yankee Stadium, but there was one I clearly recall - his 30th home run at the last regular season game of 1962. This is the only book I've found to bring me back to that day, that game, that pitcher, with just enough detail to enhance my memory. A big point brought out by the author is that in Mick's "Twilight Years" he was still more than capable of 460-foot home runs. They came at more distant intervals but the *power* was still there.

GOOD JOB OF DOCUMENTING MICK'S HOMERS

MR. NUTTALL DOES A FINE JOB OF DESCRIBING IN DETAIL MANY OF THE MICK'S HOMERS AMD OTHER BIG HITS IN HIS CAREER. THIS BOOK IS A MUST FOR ALL MICK AND FANS OF MONSTER HOMERUNS. MICKEY HIT MANY, MANY "TAPE MEASURE" SHOTS. THIS BOOK IS VERY INTERESTING AND ENTERTAINING. KUDOS FOR THE RESEARCH AND EFFORT IN THIS MUST READ. HIGHLY RECOMMENDED.
