Robert Weintraub at Decatur Library

Decatur-based author, Robert Weintraub, has a new book for baseball  fans: ”The House That Ruth Built: A New Stadium, the First Yankees Championship, and the Redemption of 1923.”  It’s a look back at the 1923 New York Yankees, the team that opened Yankee stadium and won the first of the Bronx Bombers’ 27 world titles.  The centerpiece of this true story is the mighty Babe Ruth, soon to become the game’s greatest slugger, and the Yankees’ World Series win over their bitter rivals, John McGraw’s New York Giants.
