The Big Fella: Babe Ruth and the World He Created by Jane Leavy

4.0

Fantastic reporting. Leavy uncovers new information and corrects some long-standing misperceptions about the Babe. The forensic accounting of Ruth's income and wealth are fascinating and worthwhile. Though the writing itself is excellent, the narrative structure is choppy and, in my opinion, distracting (otherwise would be a 5-star review).
