Description

Tales of a team on the edge of hysteria
A firsthand, behind-the-scenes account of the turmoil that pervaded the New York Yankee franchise in the late 1970s, this book discusses George Steinbrenner's purchase and continual rebuilding of the team—alongside a colorful cast of players and businessmen. Not merely a look at the time spent in Yankee Stadium, this chronicle also describes the team's public arguments, practical jokes, drunken excess, self-aggrandizing publicity efforts, and the ups and downs that accompanied the Yankees and George Steinbrenner through the 1970s and beyond.

Publishers Weekly Review

Apr 29, 1991 – Between 1977 and 1989, Yankees owner George Steinbrenner's tyrannical leadership turned the stable ball club into one characterized by chaos. ``The era Madden and Klein survey has seen 18 managers, 11 presidents, 10 PR agents and innumerable here-today-gone-tomorrow players,'' said PW. ``Such volatility makes for a rollicking though dismaying tale, related here with gusto.''
