From Library Journal
Interesting tidbits abound in this fascinating biography of a true hero.
Bak tells how Gehrig, while suffering from ALS (amyotrophic lateral sclerosis),
gave a farewell speech that became the baseball equivalent of Lincoln's
Gettysburg Address. Gehrig's life story continues to strike a chord, and
libraries would do well to order this lovely book.
