Mets Stories I Only Tell My Friends

De: Art Shamsky, Matthew Silverman, Howie Rose - foreword

Narrado por: Barry Abrams

Art Shamsky, 1969 New York Met and noted author, shares with listeners stories and anecdotes from his fifty-year association with the New York Mets. Through stories of varying lengths, listeners will be privy to behind-the-scenes and first-hand accounts of the New York Mets from lovable losers to impossible winners in 1969, and beyond, including stories about today's players. We witness the leadership of Tom Seaver, the steady hand of manager Gil Hodges, what it was like to share right field with charismatic Ron Swoboda, what it was like to grace a magazine cover with 1960s supermodel Lauren Hutton, in addition to a wealth of stories about the Mets, the organization, and its star players over the past half century.

Great memoir!

I really enjoyed this memoir by Art Shamsky, with help from Matthew Silverman. I'm lucky to call Matt Silverman a friend, and have enjoyed many of his books, both those written with famous athletes like this one, as well as books solely written by Matt. My only quibble is I was not crazy about the narrator in the Audible version, but overall a really good listen!
