"For a half-century, the world's most influential figures told their story to Larry King. One of the most famous personalities in television history—whose trademark suspenders and unmistakable voice were known to millions around the world—King reveals nearly all in this intimate and riveting memoir. He delves deeply into his extraordinary personal odyssey, beginning with the loss of his father when Larry was only nine years old, and recounts growing up in Depression-era Brooklyn. Over the years, Larry was fired, incarcerated, and survived not only a heart attack and quintuple bypass surgery, but several marriages. Filled with delightfully evocative personal anecdotes and behind-the-scenes observations about some of our most important world figures, the inimitable King tells his colorful story with humor and candor."
"Larry King was a true-blue baseball fanatic. A lifelong love affair began the night he attended a Dodgers game at Ebbets Field as a kid in 1940s Brooklyn. That was a simpler era in America's history, a time when tickets to a game cost fifty cents and parish priests prayed for Gil Hodges to break out of a slump.
In this heartfelt valentine to America's favorite pastime, King recalls the many pleasures the game brought him for more than sixty years. During his broadcasting career, King had the opportunity to meet and interview many of the legends of his youth. Jackie Robinson, Casey Stengel, Ted Williams, Leo Durocher, Stan Musial—they're all here—plus many, many more. From the golden days when Mickey Mantle, Willie Mays, and Duke Snider were all playing center field for New York teams at the same time, to the Subway Series in 2000 and the stirring first ballgame in New York after 9/11, this unique history is full of wonderful anecdotes. Friends and fellow baseball fanatics Bob Costas, Charlie Bragg, and Herb Cohen also contributed essays on their love for the game, and King discusses his favorite books, movies, and songs about the sport. This ode to baseball is a must for all fans and will be treasured by lovers of the game everywhere."
"Successful TV political commentator Arthur Vandameer— host of WNIN's Speaking Truth to Power— is rich, famous… and miserable. He has risen to the top of the city's glittering media heap only to find nothing. His teenage daughter— privileged, glamorous Allison— is blonde, beautiful, and wants nothing more than to go to film school. Her boyfriend, Joselito Diaz (aka Goonie), is special to her only because she knows her father cannot stand him.
When the lovely Allison disappears, a madcap cast of characters gets into the act, stirring a citywide web of intrigue, insanity, political values and personal agendas. Their search takes them from The Plaza, to Queens, to Herald Square, to Tiffany' s, a few bars, a few bedrooms, Bergdorf Goodman, and back— culminating on live television in front of all of America."
