Reviews
"Combine half a century of baseball experience with a devil-may-care refusal to censor his vinegary personality, and you have a recipe for what this book is: a memorable look back from someone who has seen the game, and excelled at it, from all sides." --George F. Will, "Davey Johnson has elevated the genre with a book that is wise, funny and startlingly honest. I learned as much about managing a successful life and business as I did about managing a World Series Championship baseball team. The best sports autobiography I've read." --Randy Wayne White, New York Times bestselling novelist

Synopsis
Davey Johnson is best known for managing the New York Mets, Cincinnati Reds, and Baltimore Orioles--and taking all three clubs to their respective league championship series during his time at the helm. When teams needed to improve, they hired Johnson, and he delivered, memorably leading the Mets to the 1986 World Series title. Yet even as he raised the bar of their success, all three clubs parted ways with Johnson, a pattern that puzzles him to this day. A self-termed "army brat," Johnson kept moving, managing the Los Angeles Dodgers then the Washington Nationals before announcing his retirement in 2013. But managing baseball has been just one part of Johnson's fascinating life. A true Renaissance man, Johnson has also found incredible success as a land investor, pilot, scratch golfer, scuba diving teacher, and mathematician, pioneering the use of sabermetrics in the big leagues. Now, Johnson finally takes the time to meditate on his wild and remarkable journey, with reflections on not only his All-Star playing days and years of managerial success in New York, Cincinnati, and Baltimore, but on his entire career.
