Title: Roger Maris
Description: In the first definitive biography of the Yankee slugger, Tom Clavin and Danny Peary show that Maris was much more than a flash in the pan. In addition to documenting Maris's amazing home run record, which he achieved in the face of great adversity from adherents of Babe Ruth, Clavin and Peary remind readers that Maris was also a Gold Glove outfielder who actually saved the 1962 World Series for the Yankees with his stellar defensive play.
