From acclaimed journalist Ben Bradlee Jr. comes the epic biography of Boston Red Sox legend Ted Williams that baseball fans have been waiting for. Williams was the best hitter in baseball history. His batting average of .406 in 1941 has not been topped since, and no player who has hit more than 500 home runs has a higher career batting average. Those totals would have been even higher if Williams had not left baseball for nearly five years in the prime of his career to serve as a Marine pilot in WWII and Korea. He hit home runs farther than any player before him -- and traveled a long way himself, as Ben Bradlee, Jr.'s grand biography reveals. Born in 1918 in San Diego, Ted would spend most of his life disguising his Mexican heritage. During his 22 years with the Boston Red Sox, Williams electrified crowds across America -- and shocked them, too: His notorious clashes with the press and fans threatened his reputation. Yet while he was a God in the batter's box, he was profoundly human once he stepped away from the plate. His ferocity came to define his troubled domestic life. While baseball might have been straightforward for Ted Williams, life was not. The Kid is biography of the highest literary order, a thrilling and honest account of a legend in all his glory and human complexity. In his final at-bat, Williams hit a home run. Bradlee's marvelous book clears the fences, too.

This was a fascinating story about a fascinating individual. It wasn't always happy. Williams' life was certainly not always happy. While his childhood was miserable, his athletic career was brilliant. He was a reluctant - extremely reluctant - member of the Armed Forces. But, once in, he did a great job. The fans in Boston enjoyed a turbulent relationship with him after his rookie season. His relationships with his wives and girlfriends were never easy, nor were his relationships with his children. But, the author writes honestly about these and not in a patronizing manner. I loved this book, and was thrilled as I read it. Williams was the greatest pure hitter in baseball history. This is a definite read for any baseball fan.
