This is a really fun book even if you know a lot about the Yankees. While it covers things I know about it also provides facts and information about the many moments I was not aware of, which is part of the fun. There is a chapter on the link between Seinfeld and the Yankees and that was a blast to read. There are many moments in the history of the Yankees, so narrowing it down to 50 is not necessarily the easiest but this book achieves that goal well and is a fun and relaxing read.
