NOTES

"The incomparable and mysterious Sandy Koufax is revealed…. This is an absorbing book, beautifully written." -Wall Street Journal "Leavy has hit it out of the park…A lot more than a biography. It's a consideration of how we create our heroes, and how this hero's self perception distinguishes him from nearly every other great athlete in living memory… a remarkably rich portrait." - Time The instant New York Times bestseller about the baseball legend and famously reclusive Dodgers' pitcher Sandy Koufax, from award-winning former Washington Post sportswriter Jane Leavy. Sandy Koufax reveals, for the first time, what drove the three-time Cy Young award winner to the pinnacle of baseball and then-just as quickly-into self-imposed exile
