Great Bio of a Truly Colorful Character
Published by Thriftbooks.com User , 14 years ago
This biography of Dizzy Dean, the great pitcher for the St Louis Cardinals in the 1930s and later a wonderfully popular radio and TV announcer for baseball. This bio pulls no punches and tells it like it was. Ole Diz was a lovable character, but had plenty of rough spots (as do we all). This book covers the times as well as his life. I highly recommend it for anyone interested in baseball and its colorful characters.
