Product Information

Bestselling sportswriter Peter Golenbock knew Mickey Mantle, Billy Martin, Jim Bouton, Joe Pepitone, and many of Mantle's friends, family, and teammates. While Mickey was a good person at heart, he had a dark side that went far beyond his well-known alcoholism and infidelities.

Reviews
A comic, wild, sad and salacious reimagining of the late Yankee's life…" -- The New York Times Mickey Mantle was the most fascinating ball-player I ever covered. I thought I knew everything about him; but Peter Golenbock's wildly funny, shrewd and eventually compassionate fictional take is as intellectually satisfying as it is risky. The pathetic journalists and fans who have objectified the Mick to make him an icon won't like it, but I bet Mickey would laugh and cry his ass off." --Robert Lipsyte, former New York Times sportswriter and columnist Mickey was one of my best friends, and this book is the closest thing to the real Mickey Mantle that I have ever read. No one could make me laugh like Mickey could, until now. I experienced a real joy, feeling I was with him again." --Bill Reedy Mickey Mantle was a nice bunch of guys. We in the media were warned for years to get him early in the day or bad Mickey would pay a visit. Peter Golenbock's 7 is alternately funny and touching, and captures both Mickey's demons and his great sense of humor. It's fascinating to read these stories in Mickey's voice. His self-examination of what went wrong, driven by his insecurities instilled in childhood, is revealing. 7 distills the essence of this tortured soul, with all the heartaches and regrets. 7 is a grand slam." --Ed Randall, Ed Randall's Talking Baseball , WFAN radio, New York This is a book solidly in the American grain. Mickey Mantle was talented, doomed, wry, outrageously lewd and tortured by poor-boy morality, and his comic soul comes busting straight through as he attempts to interview his guilt away in heaven. He was a sinner, absolutely, but he was one of us. Golenbock has made him inescapable as well as unputdownable." —Burton Hersh, author of The Old Boys: The American Elite and the Origins of the CIA

1 out of 5 stars
by IVjGVBR8Tw2@Del...May 02, 2008
Poorly Written, probably accurate but no insight
The profile hints at a tortured soul but gives us no insight to the man the myth, his iconic stature, how it manifested and changed if at all. It could have been about any reprehensible character who achieve nothing or much less.
