Reggie Jackson


The Life and Thunderous Career of Baseball's Mr October
Dayn Perry - 2011 HarperCollins Publishers

Reggie Jackson seems to be one of those players that most people have an opinion about, and yet, somehow, Dayn Perry wrote a book about him without overtly taking sides. 

At first, it feels surprising that a book about such a colorful character would be so simple and factual, but in the end I appreciate that Perry provides the information and let's us decide which way to go with it.  I also like how each chapter is focused on a (in)famous Reggie quote.

In all, a nice, easy, informative read.
