The Last Boy weaves together the author’s own memories of Mickey Mantle with stories and reminiscences, both on and off the field, of a man who led the Yankees to seven world championships, was voted the American League’s MVP three times, won the Triple Crown in 1956 and dueled teammate Roger Maris in the thrilling 1961 chase for the single season home-run record – all the while battling crippling injuries and the lifelong drinking problem that eventually led to his death.
This is an enhanced e-book of The Last Boy, which includes 30 minutes of video that provide unique analysis of Mantle’s left and right handed swings, Mantle memorabilia not found in the book, insight into the structure of the book, and other information sure to interest Mantle and baseball fans.

The Truth About Getting the Best From People eBook for Kindle for FREE
Amazon has Martha I. Finney’s The Truth About Getting the Best From People eBook for Kindle for FREE (19.99 – 19.99 instant savings) for a limited time.
As a people leader, your job is to inspire your employees to bring their personal greatness to work every day and to invest their best in your business. And that’s a hard job. It’s an emotional roller coaster. You experience the exquisite highs of engagement and teamwork when everyone is pulling together. Your heart breaks when you have to make really tough decisions that negatively affect the personal lives and well-being of people you truly care about. And it can be absolutely frightening when you’re dealing with hair-trigger personalities who really don’t belong in a safe workplace.
But even more routinely—and just as challenging, if not more so—you have to deal with yourself and your beliefs about life, about people, and about motivation and trust. Every day. Even on the ho-hum days. And that’s when we get down to some pretty simple principles. Although this book by no means trivializes all the behaviors and beliefs that go into bringing out the greatness in your employees, the material you’ll discover in these pages is based on a few very accessible assumptions. When you learn that creating great employees can be fun and personally rewarding, the first great employee you’ll create will be yourself.
