Reviews
"A comprehensive look at a gargantuan life." -People   "Montville is refreshingly nonjudgmental about his superstar subject.  First-rate biography." -Los Angeles Times Book Review   "Crisp analogies and astute observations, combined with a fluid writing style, are Leigh Montville's strengths in thisdefinitive biography of the Splendid Splinter.  Montville's writing is rich and full, like a Ted Williams swing.  He connects solidly. A raw, no-holds-barred view of [Williams's] life." -Tampa Tribune   "An engaging, fascinating read." -San Diego Tribune "Ted Williamsis not only a first-rate sports biography, but alsoa first-rate biography, period." -Baltimore Sun, Praise for Ted Williams: "The complete packagea triumph…"The Boston Globe "In Ted Williams, Montville reaches a threshold even the mighty Williams could never touch: perfection."Newsday "It is unlikely that any reader could view Ted Williams as just a ballplayer ever again."The New York Times Book Review

Synopsis
Babe Ruth was baseball's original superstar, and for more than eighty-five years he has remained the sport's reigning titan. Now Leigh Montville, whose recent New York Times bestselling biography of Ted Williams garnered glowing reviews, brings his unerring touch to this intimate, revelatory portrait of the Babe. Based on newly discovered documents and interviews-including thousands of pages of Ruth's personal scrapbooks -THE BIG BAM traces Ruth's life from his childhood in an orphanage to his brash entrance into professional baseball, from Boston to New York and into the record books as the world's most explosive slugger. Montville explores every aspect of the man and the myths, giving readers an insider's perspective on Ruth's larger-than-life personality and making it clear why his legend looms as large as ever. At a time when baseball is being shaken by controversy and scandal, THE BIG BAM brings back the glory days of baseball and brilliantly illuminates its most legendary-and truly remarkable-hero.

    Unfortunately I received a damaged book, the item and the package both were damaged and it was clearly evident its appearance that it happened during transit. The seller was very understanding and gave me a full refund for the damaged book, though it was no fault of their own. Other than the damage, the book was as described, the quality and condition aside from the damaged spot was like new. The cost of the book was reasonable. I would definitely purchase from the seller again.

    Although this book was not as described, with no picture of it in the listing, the seller communicated well and quickly gave me a full refund while letting me keep it. The minimal packaging left the book a bit vulnerable (typical for ThriftBooks), but it did arrive safely and timely. As usual, it’s hit or miss with this seller, but often times you can get great values, and their customer service is always very good. Many other sellers with millions of transactions don’t even communicate.

    I recently purchased an item from this eBay seller, and I couldn't be happier with the experience. From the prompt communication to the fast shipping, everything was handled with utmost professionalism. The item arrived exactly as described and was well-packaged to ensure its safety during transit. The seller was courteous and responsive, making the entire transaction smooth and hassle-free. I highly recommend this seller to anyone looking for quality products and excellent service.
