Publisher's Synopsis
Widely regarded as the greatest all-around player in baseball history because of his unparalleled hitting, defense and baserunning, the beloved Willie Mays offers people of all his lifetime of experience meeting challenges with positivity, integrity and triumph in '24.' Presented in 24 chapters to correspond with his universally recognised uniform number, Willie's memoir provides more than the story of his role in America's pastime. This is the story of a man who values family and community, engages in charitable causes (especially involving children), and follows a philosophy that encourages hope, hard work and the fulfillment of dreams.
