Thank you. As a kid who grew up idolizing and copying Rickey’s game, this book is a real treat.

Howard Bryant is able to show Ricky for whom he is. A complex figure that had a career in baseball as good as (or better) than those that are put on Mount Rushmore of baseball. I now know how important Ricky was to baseball.

This wasn’t the Henderson biography that I’ve been waiting for. Overwrought, tiresome and unenjoyable.

Probably my favorite player. Liked the history background of Oakland and its athletes; bummed about the Olerud story.
