From CBS sportswriter, baseball analyst, and author of Winners: How Good Baseball Teams Become Great Ones, this book presents Reggie Jackson in all his glory—a thrilling, in-depth biography of the Hall of Fame slugger from his childhood to his legendary years with the Yankees and into the twenty-first century. A monumental sports story filled with such stellar baseball names as George Steinbrenner, Billy Martin, Jim "Catfish" Hunter, Thurman Munson, and Bucky Dent, Reggie Jackson is the first to cover the entire twenty-one-season career—from the 1967 Kansas City A's to the 1987 Oakland A's—of the colorful, outspoken athlete whom the Sporting News listed as one of the 100 Greatest Baseball Players of all time.
"Perry teases out the combustible, contradictory, provocative aspects of Jackson's personality—not to mention his talent for demolishing a baseball—that still make him such an irresistible personality to this day." —Booklist
"Dayn Perry, a damn fine writer, brings an insightful, fresh analysis to the career of Mr. October." —Peter Golenbock, New York Times–bestselling author of George: The Poor Little Rich Boy Who Built the Yankee Empire
