Book Reviews of Three Nights in August: Strategy, Heartbreak, and Joy Inside the Mind of a Manager
Book Review: The best baseball book of all time!
Summary: 5 Stars
An incredible work of art!!
I myself am a Cardinals fan, but that does not mean that this book isn't a great read for any fan of baseball. I have friends and co-workers who are fans of the dreaded Cubs, they have read this book and loved it as well!
"Three Nights in August" finally gives the sports fan a look at all of the work and strategy that goes into managing a baseball team. If anyone out there thought that it would be an easy job, think again... Buzz goes into Tony's daily routines during the season, and it's hard to believe the man can stand up let alone manage the greatest team in baseball. I don't know how he does it getting a mere 5 hours of sleep a night!?!?
This book does a great job showing the stress and incite of a manager and how they must deal with it everyday. A wonderful book that should be read by anyone who is a true fan of the game!
