Damned Yankees : A no-holds-barred account of life with "Boss" Steinbrenner / Print Bill Madden - New York Warner Books 1990 - 292 p. Index. Hardback book.

"Damned Yankees" is the firsthand, behind-the-scenes account of how chaos, confusion and craziness pervaded the once proud and mighty New York Yankee franchise and doomed it to a decade of decay. The man to thank is a man of action and vision, a volatile and exacting shipbuilder from Tampa named George Steinbrenner. It was Steinbrenner who bought the team in 1973, rebuilt in into a World Series champion and then plunged it into a state of constant turmoil that hopelessly destroyed its quest for sustained success.
