The 1932 New York Yankees: The Story of a Legendary Team, a Remarkable Season, and a Wild World Series
Ronald A. Mayer
Are the 1932 Yankees the greatest team of all time?
This is the story of their remarkable season, led by Babe Ruth & Lou Gehrig, toward one of the most lopsided & talked-about World Series in baseball history.
At the outset of the Great Depression, as FDR campaigned to replace Herbert Hoover, a baseball season was played across America.
In the National League, the Chicago Cubs narrowly won the pennant thanks to the likes of Gabby Hartnett, Charlie Grimm, Billy Herman, Riggs Stephenson, Kiki Cuyler, Johnny Moore, Lon Warneke, and Guy Bush. In the American League, Joe McCarthy's New York Yankees ran away with the pennant, leaving Connie Mack's Philadelphia Athletics in the dust.
Babe Ruth, Lou Gehrig, Bill Dickey, Earle Combs, Tony Lazzeri, Ben Chapman, Frankie Crosetti, Joe Sewell, Lefty Gomez, Red Ruffing, George Pipgras, and Johnny Allen led the way to one of the winningest teams in the early American League, overshadowed only by the 1927 Yankees. Chicago and New York then clashed in one of the most lop-sided and talked-about World Series in baseball history.
ABOUT THE AUTHOR: Ronald A. Mayer is the author of a number of baseball books: 1937 Newark Bears: A Baseball Legend, Perfect! 14 Pitchers of Perfect Games, Christy Mathewson: A Game-by-Game Profile of a Legendary Pitcher, The 1923 New York Yankees, and The New Jersey Book of Lists.
