‘All these many years down the road, Lou Gehrig’s reputation still holds up as does Ray Robinson’s elegant biography.’ –Bob Costas
Lou Gehrig will go down in history as one of the best ballplayers of all time; he was elected to the Hall of Fame and played in a record-setting 2, 130 consecutive games. ALS known today as ‘Lou Gehrig’s Disease’ robbed him of his physical skills at a relatively young age, and he died in 1941. Ray Robinson re-creates the life of this legendary ballplayer and also provides an insightful look at baseball, including all the great players of that era: Babe Ruth, Ty Cobb, Walter Johnson, and more.
