As a boy in the 1890s he went looking for thrills in a rural Georgia that still burned with humiliation from the Civil War. As an old man in the 1960s he dared death, picked fights, refused to take his medicine, and drove off all his friends and admirers. He went to his deathbed alone, clutching a loaded pistol and a bag containing millions of dollars worth of cash and securities.
During the years in between, he became, according to Al Stump, “the most shrewd, inventive, lurid, detested, mysterious, and superb of all baseball players.” He was Ty Cobb.
In Cobb, Stump tells how he was given a fascinating window into the Georgia Peach’s life and times when the dying Cobb hired him in 1960 to ghostwrite his autobiography.

Book is complete crap. Was a scandal book of lies that he didn’t release until Cobbs death. Says Cobb was racist , Cobb paid the pensions of a ton of negro league guys down on their luck in the end. Look up the real Cobb and stop giving air to the National Enquirer level garbage. The Tommy Lee Jones movie was based on this book so it is crap as well. Look up the real Cobb , in 10 seconds you will find out what a total hack Stump was.

Stump fabricated much of what is in this book and then Ken Burns foolishly used it as a source. Not a good bio and a big part of why people think Cobb was despicable
