Summary
"For decades, the most recognized name in baseball was John McGraw. An outstanding player in the 1890s, McGraw--nicknamed "Mugsy"--was molded in the rough and tumble pre-20th century game. Later, he became the successful manager of the New York Giants, dominating the National League in New York City for more than 30 years"--Provided by publisher.
