Joe Torre played for the Braves, the Cardinals, and the Mets before managing all three teams. From 1996 to 2007, Torre managed the New York Yankees. As pictured here, he is currently the manager for the Los Angeles Dodgers. In this book co-written by Tom Verducci, Torre gives the behind the scenes tale of his time with the Yankees. When Joe Torre took over as manager of the New York Yankees in 1996, they had not won a World Series title in eighteen years. The notoriously brutal New York media, cited Torre's record as the player and manager who had been in the most Major League games without appearing in a World Series.

Twelve years later, Torre left the team as the most beloved and successful manager in the game. The Yankees had twelve straight playoff appearances, Six American League pennants, and Four World Series titles. Torre forged a united team and made the Yankees, arguably, the greatest team in sports. Now with the 2009 World Series Title under their belts, you don't want to miss this book about the Yankees!
