		McGraw's career is a story of two baseball eras: its rowdy early days and the cool, corporate operations of post-World War I. McGraw's constant umpire baiting, penchant for inspiring either hatred or loyalty, and bond with star pitcher Christy Mathewson through many championship years, reveal a fiery, dictatorial, and brilliant man. Highly recommended.
		For this, he is to be commended as he has certainly put to paper, atleast to this point, the definitive book on John McGraw.
		McGraw was not only a very complex individual, but a great study into the inside workings of a man who just hated to lose.
