Hammerin' Hank Greenberg by Shelley Sommer
Growing up in New York, young Hank Greenberg spent most of his time playing ball.  6'3" by the time he was 13, Hank was big and strong, but did he have what it takes to join the ranks of Ruth, Gehrig, and Cobb?  Author Sommer tells the story of one of baseball's greatest, a man who gave much to baseball and his country, and who played the way he lived: with malice toward none, with charity for all (except opposing pitchers).
