A Yankee Century
The First Hundred Years of Baseball's Greatest Team


Rickey and Robinson
The Men Who Broke
Baseball's Color Barrier


Growing Up Baseball
An Oral History
(w/ Frederic J. Frommer)


Nothing defines America like baseball. And nothing defines baseball like the Yankees. From their historic beginnings as the New York Highlanders playing in Manhattan's Hilltop Park in 1903, to their reign as the modern-day dynasty.


Blending exclusive interviews, celebrated author Harvey Frommer evokes the lives of Brooklyn Dodgers General Manager Branch Rickey and heralded baseball player Jackie Robinson to describe how they worked together to shatter baseball's color line.


Growing Up Baseball captures the dream that lived in the young hearts and minds of sixty-nine baseball players who made it to the major leagues. The Frommers use first-hand interviews with legendary figures such as well as less frequently remembered players.
