Amazon has Jane Leavy’s The Last Boy: Mickey Mantle and the End of America’s Childhood ebook for Kindle for FREE for a limited time.

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.
