- catalog abstract ""The New York Yankees' history is filled with tales of great achievement, outstanding performance, unprecedented success. For more than 40 years, from 1921 to 1964, the team won 29 pennants and 20 world championships and featured such greats as Babe Ruth, Lou Gehrig, Joe DiMaggio, Mickey Mantle, Bill Dickey, Yogi Berra and Whitey Ford. Yankee haters waited endlessly for the fall and finally, in 1965, the Yankees began to flounder. The team didn't win anything for the next eleven years." "Each losing season, from 1965 through 1975, is fully covered in this book. The author maintains that in their mediocrity, the Yankees somehow acquired a more endearing quality. In place of the fabled names of the past the team now offered Bill Robinson, Danny Cater, Jerry Kenney and Jake Gibbs, and standouts Bobby Murcer, Mel Stottlemyre, Thurman Munson and Roy White - men who knew the Yankees' glorious history but also, firsthand, the decade of frustration and disappointment."--Jacket.".
