"I find little comfort in the popular picture of Cobb as a spike-slashing demon of the diamond with a wide streak of cruelty in his nature. The fights and feuds I was in have been steadily slanted to put me in the wrong. . . . My critics have had their innings. I will have mine now."--Ty Cobb
“Highly successful in knitting together this story of the life of a most remarkable and dedicated player—perhaps the most spirited baseball player ever to have graced the diamond.”—Library Journal.
"Frank, bitter, trend-setting autobiography."--USA Today Baseball Weekly
"One of the most remarkable sports books ever written."--Los Angeles Daily News
"The old Tiger still spits and snarls off the pages."--Cooperstown Review
"Of Ty Cobb let it be said simply that he was the world's greatest ballplayer."--New York Herald Tribune (1961 editorial on Cobb's death)
