Branch Rickey: Baseball’s Ferocious Gentleman by Lee Lowenfish

“It’s about time people get to know the many dimensions of this extraordinary legend.”—New York Governor Mario Cuomo

“Lowenfish . . . delivers a superb biography of one of the most compelling and important figures in American sports. . . . Lowenfish presents this baseball revolutionary not as his admirers or his critics (or Rickey) saw him but as he was, and one can ask nothing more from a biography.”—CHOICE
