An unflinching, all-access look at the friendship between Mickey Mantle and Billy Martintwo beloved Yankees and flawed heroes who embodied both triumph and self-destructionThrough meticulous research and exclusive interviews with the late Mantle and Martinand those who knew them bestjournalist and historian Tony Castro reveals the double-edged sword of their friendship: how the New York Yankees legends, an inseparable duo, epitomized the swagger and spirit of their era while paying the price for fame's excesses. Mantle, the golden boy blessed with power, speed, and charm. Martin, the fiery underdog whose grit made him indispensable. While leading a 1950s Yankees dynasty, they lived life at full throttle: wild partying, barroom brawls, and runins with the law. As the years wore on, the very traits that made Mantle and Martin extraordinary figures exacted a heavy price, but in Mickey & Billy, we see that their friendship was the saving grace. Only together could Mickey and Billy face life's next difficult pitch.
