[Signed] [First Edition] Pride of October: What It Was to Be Young and a Yankee [VINTAGE 2003] [SIGNED FIRST EDITION, FIRST PRINTING] Madden, Bill
130.18 CAD
As new condition blue boards with white spine lettering contained in a fine condition non price-clipped photographic dust jacket. Includes Dedication; Acknowledgments; Prologue and Index. Illustrated with black-and-white photographs. Signed by the author, Bill Madden, with black pen on the half title page. "In October, one team traditionally plays baseball longer than any other. Now New York Times bestselling baseball writer Bill Madden draws on the words of New York Yankee legends to bring to life eighty years of pride, excellence, and tradition of the winningest team in sports history. In this book, illustrated by dozens of both vintage as well as contemporary photos, Madden talks to seventeen former Yankees - and one Yankee wife - to discover why playing in pinstripes is an experience unique in sports. Here is Whitey Ford, going back to his pitching roots in Astoria, Queens . Don Mattingly, who walked away from the Bronx to be a father in Indiana . Bobby Murcer, recalling how his life was never the same after the Yankees traded him . Bobby Richardson, the player-turned preacher who ministered to Mickey Mantle at his bedside while he was dying (here Richardson talks about Mickey's last days for the first time) . and Paul O'Neill, approaching the end of his career with fierce dignity and quiet pride. And here are the poignant stories of other notable Yankee favorites , including that of Ron Blomberg, the Jewish slugger from Georgia, and New York-born Joe Pepitone, who traded his talent for a taste of the high life. Through the eyes of these and other players we get an inside view of thrilling victories, heartbreaking defeats, and colorful characters both on the field and off. Jerry Coleman relives an emotional, heartbreaking experience from the Korean War - and the dramatic weekend sweep of the Red Sox that won the '49 pennant and ignited a string of five straight world championships under Casey Stengel. Hot-tempered World War II hero Ralph Houk remembers the gut-wrenching '61 home run duel between Roger Maris and Mickey Mantle. Phil Rizzuto describes the end of Joe DiMaggio's hitting streak. Reggie Jackson tells his story of conflict and towering triumph with the Yankees and, along with Lou Piniella and Yogi Berra, paints portraits of Billy Martin, Thurman Munson, and George Steinbrenner that are far more personal than any we have seen before. Pride of October chronicles boys becoming big leaguers, rookies becoming veterans, and what it is like to go home again - changed forever - after a Yankee career. Filled with unforgettable moments in baseball history, this book joyously captures the glory of the game . and the spirit of the team that has played it best." - from the inner front and rear jacket flaps

FIRST EDITION, INSCRIBED BY AUTHORS. 8vo. Original black cloth, lettered in white and yellow. Extremities bruised, white marks and scuffing to bottom board, spine baggy. Gently toned, inscribed in black pen, and two hands, to title page: "To our former secretary of special collections A. Allen Shockley and Sue P. Chandler, best wishes always.", pen scoring and star to one paragraph of Preface. Else, clean and bright. Very good. An unusual presentation copy of Ann Allen Shockley and Sue P. Chandler's 1973 pioneering biographical directory of Living Black American Authors, inscribed to their former colleague and secretary at Fisk University Special Collections, Mrs. Alice Mason, who worked (in her free time) with them on the book; Mason is also included in Shockley's Preface, a paragraph scored and marked with a star: "Grateful acknowledgement is extended to my former secretary, Mrs. Alice Mason, who painstakingly typed all drafts of the manuscript during her spare off-duty hours." Completed on weekends and "sandwiched in between" by the two Fiske University Special Collections librarians, their directory was "a meaningful and important landmark to those black writers who are making a niche in the publishing world which has neglected black writers for two long. The attainments listed in these entries give testament to an awakening response to black authors and their work." Ann Allen Shockley (1927-) is an author and former academic librarian, professor of library science and activist archivist, who specialised in African-American collections. She founded the Black Oral History Program at Fisk University, where she was the Head of Special Collections. Maya Angelou, Gwendolyn Brooks and Toni Morrison feature here, alongside Shockley herself (with this title) and referencing a title in preparation, "A Love So Bold," which likely became Loving Her (1974), Shockley's (also) pioneering first novel, which featured a black lesbian protagonist.

Something was nagging at her, but she couldn't pin it. The last thing she needed in the morning mail was a letter from her bank recording an erroneous $5,000 deposit in her account. Kinsey had never believed in Santa Clause and she wasn't about to change her mind now. Resigning herself to a morning of frustration, she phoned the bank and, assaulted by canned carols, waited on hold for an officer to clear up the snafu.It was with something less than Christmas cheer that Kinsey faced off only minutes later with California Fidelity's Mac Voorhies. Voorhies was smart, humorless, stingy with praise, and totally fair. He was frowning now.'I got a phone call this morning,' he said, his frown deepening. 'Somebody says you're on the take.'Suddenly the $5,000 deposit clicked into place. It wasn't a mistake. It was a setup."CONDITION: This book, dust jacket, and laid in ruler are all fine. A very special copy of this signed, first edition. Full refund if not satisfied.
