Review: Willie Mays

May 16, 2010

At home plate posted this extensive review of James Hirsch’s bio of the Hall of Famer.

Upshot: “This book is a feast for serious baseball aficionados and a veritable banquet for Giants fans. The sheer heft should not matter to those folks.  They should plunge right in, especially those who remember the young Willie. A subtitle could be “Everything You Always Wanted to Know about Willie Mays,” but if there is interest in the subject matter, where is the problem?”
