Title: A wonderful expose on an exceptional team...
Review: Having been a Met fan for the better (or worse as the case may be) part of my life I'm not so impartial in my reading. However this book simply does not disappoint in pleasing any fan who was around and remembers the amazing 1985-6 team. The Mets have been erratic at best and God-aweful at worst since 1987 or so. It's nice to have such an explicit behind the scenes look at the team that so many of us fondly recall (surely followed by a sigh and a shake of the head no doubt). The team had it's share of self-induced casualties (Gooden, Strawberry) hot-shots (Hernandez, Dykstra) and team losers (my favorite - Heep, Sisk - who sound like they were loads of fun to hang out with).In short if you recall the mid-80's New York Mets with great fondness - than this book is a must-read. My only regret was that it wasn't longer (and it's already just over three-hundred pages).
Is the review positive or negative?
