Originally published in 1978 as Thurman Munson: An Autobiography just a year before Thurman Munson's death, Marty Appel's collaboration with the famous New York Yankees catcher and captain breathes new life in Thurm: Memoirs of a Forever Yankee. With a new Introduction by Appel and Foreword by Diana Munson, this revised edition celebrates the life of the Yankee captain in his own words, chronicling his path to the majors, his career success, the breakdown of his body as he gave his all to the sport, his absolute dedication to his wife and children above all else, and his tragic death at age thirty-two in a plane he was piloting.
