From the New York Times best-selling author of Munson and Pinstripe Empire, Casey Stengel is the definitive biography of baseball's greatest character.
There was nobody like Casey before him and no one like him since. For more than 50 years, Casey Stengel lived baseball, first as a player (he was the only person in history to play for all the New York teams - the Dodgers, Giants, Yankees, and Mets) and then as a manager (for the Yankees and Mets, among others). He made his biggest mark on the game revolutionizing the role of manager while winning an astounding 10 pennants and seven World Series championships (including five straight!) with the Yankees. Playing with and against a who's who of Cooperstown - Babe Ruth, Christy Mathewson, Ty Cobb - and forming indelible and sometimes complicated relationships with Yogi Berra, Joe DiMaggio, Mickey Mantle, and Billy Martin, Casey Stengel was, for an astonishing five decades, the undisputed, hilarious, and beloved face of baseball.
For a man who spent so much of his life in the limelight, he still remains an enigma. New York Times best-selling author Marty Appel paints an intimate portrait of a private man who was larger than life and remains the embodiment of the national pastime.

yesWhat did you like best about this story?
The information presented about Casey, Edna and others.Which scene was your favorite?
Casey standing for the National Anthem in the hospital.Did you have an extreme reaction to this book? Did it make you laugh or cry?
I laughed out loud a few times.Any additional comments?
I found Appel’s voice to be friendly, authentic, natural and entertaining. The inflections were subtle and indicated where moods and situations changed. I heard in his voice many different personalities of the people he wrote about and quoted. He made it easy to listen to questions asked and answered.Juliet Papa did a magnificent job narrating Edna’s writing. She complimented the entire presentation. It was a perfect marriage of narrations sorta speak.
