 "Few people in sports are more talked about than Casey Stengel, the master 
 of double-talk, the brilliant manager who guided the New York Yankees to 
 ten pennants in twelve seasons. In 'Stengel', Robert Creamer reveals the

 called 'Stengelese'. He shows us Casey at twenty-two, exploding into 
 instant fame on his very first day in the big leagues..One of the most 
 endouring of American heroes, Casey had a magical knack for bouncing back 
 that made him a legend in our national pastime. Creamer gives us the 
 stories and gags, but aslo Stengel the man-a complex and subtle human being.
