All the sayings of America's most beloved sports figure are included. Photos.<p/><br></br><p><b> Book Synopsis </b></p></br></br>Celebrate one of the greatest and most beloved baseball players who ever lived--and certainly the most quoted. <i>The Yogi Book</i> is the <i>New York Times</i> bestseller filled with Yogi Berra's immortal sayings, plus photographs, a career timeline, and appreciations by some of his greatest fans, including Billy Crystal and Tim McCarver. <p/> Yogi Berra's gift for saying the smartest things in the funniest, most memorable ways has made him a legend. <i>The Yogi Book</i> brings all of his famous quotes together in one place--and even better, gives the story behind them. "It ain't over till it's over."--that's Yogi's answer to a reporter when he was managing the Mets in July 1973, and they were nine games out of first place (not only quotable, but prophetic--they won the pennant). "Nobody goes there anymore. It's too crowded."--Yogi's comment to Stan Musial and Joe Garagiola about Ruggeri's restaurant in St. Louis in 1959. "It gets late early out there."--Yogi describing how shadows crept across Yankee Stadium's left field during late autumn afternoons. <br><p/><br></br><p><b> From the Back Cover </b></p></br></br>The beloved philosopher Yogi Berra has a gift for saying the smartest things in the funniest ways. His off-the-cuff wisdom is the stuff of legend--surprising, immediate, profound, and endlessly quotable. <p/><b>Why never to give up: </b><i>It ain't over till it's over."</i> <p/><b>Advice on finding your way: </b><i>When you come to a fork in the road, take it."</i> <p/><b>The mind-body problem: </b><i>You can't think and hit at the same time."</i> <p/>Gathered together by the man himself, <i>The Yogi Book</i> is the definitive collection of Yogi-isms. It includes appreciations from some of Yogi's biggest fans, and a time line of his unparalleled career, from days playing sandlot ball on "the Hill" in St. Louis to his milestones as a Yankee catcher--ten World Championships, three-time American League MVP, 15 All-Star Games, instant Hall of Famer--to his life as a manager, family man, and all-around sage. <br>
