Synopsis
A groundbreaking, breathtaking biography of one of the Century's great icons, the late Joe Dimaggio, from the acclaimed Pulitzer Prize winning author of the bestseller WHAT IT TAKES. Few celebrities have captivated the sport's world for as long, or with such depth, as Joe DiMaggio. Here, for the first time, is the definitive story of his life, as told by the award-winning journalist Richard Ben Cramer. In Cramer's hands, DiMaggio's complicated life, from the first game with the Yankees in the 1930's, his marriage to Marilyn Monroe and his rise to hero status, becomes a story of the media, the invention of a national celebrity in America, and the ways in which fame can both build and destroy. Using his renowned investigative skills, Cramer has uncovered startling, even shocking, information about DiMaggio's life and presents them with his trademark combination of 'jarring, unsentimental prose' (THE NEW YORK TIMES).

    The Seller was very good to work with. The package was damaged by USPS when shipped to me and the Seller immediately got a refund for my item. I wasn’t able to enjoy this item (not due to the Seller’s fault) but would purchase again from them.

  • A Masterly Told Tale of Two Stories

    Whether you care about sports, sports heroes, baseball, baseball heroes, or movie star celebrities (Marilyn), this book is a blockbuster for anyone who appreciates good writing.! Richard Ben Cramer has created a refreshing and definitely original masterpiece of something that is more than a biography. Like Robert Cramer's STENGEL, this book is about the life AND TIMES of Joe DiMaggio. Cramer's Pulitzer Prize winning background in journalism allows him to report such a rich setting of people and events in Joe's time that the contrast makes Joe's story all the more vivid. What impressed me most about his writing was that he gives you completely objective reports about both the positive and negative aspects of the Joe DiMaggio story, but then, he ALSO gives you his completely honest and ...
