When Babe Ruth left the New York Yankees in 1935, some feared that
the loss would cripple the club for years. However, the post-Ruth
era Yankees continued to dominate until the start of World War II.
Their forward-thinking administrative staff signed and developed
top-flight talent like Joe DiMaggio and retained superstars like
Lou Gehrig, who remained the greatest first baseman in the game
until he succumbed to amyotrophic lateral sclerosis. This history
of Yankees from 1936 to World War II details the team's swift
recovery from losing Ruth, reintroduces unheralded players,
examines the personal styles of the key men, and chronicles the
team's remarkable achievements, including winning six American
League pennants in eight years and five World Series, a time
triumph and tragedy, of characters colorful and sorrowful.
