'œThis book is the book for the serious DiMaggio and sports-as-culture buff. Moore, a professor of American studies at the University of South Florida, has sifted through most of what has been written and rumored about the Yankee Clipper in newspapers, magazines, books and even songs. The narrative portion--there's also a bibliography and DiMaggio's baseball stats--is divided into two sections: DiMaggio's life on and off the field, and his evolving stature as a mythic figure. All rendered in sensitive, but refreshingly unsentimental, prose.'' USA TodayMoore, Jack B. is the author of 'Joe DiMaggio: Baseball's Yankee Clipper' with ISBN 9780313239175 and ISBN 0313239177.
