"Riveting... Reading the book feels like the literary equivalent of passing a traffic accident; it is all but impossible to turn away." -- The New York Times
"Definitive, indispensable... A vivid and entertaining portrait." -- Sports Illustrated
"[Madden] offers an insider's look at how Steinbrenner has run his team, even finding unexpected -- certainly underpublicized -- humanity in his subject." -- Booklist
