He was Broadway Joe, the icon of elegance, the man who wooed and won Marilyn Monroe--the most beautiful girl America could dream up. \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003eJoe DiMaggio was a mirror of our best self. And he was also the loneliest hero we ever had. \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003eIn this groundbreaking biography, Pulitzer Prize-winning journalist Richard Ben Cramer presents a shocking portrait of a complicated, enigmatic life. The story that DiMaggio never wanted told, tells of his grace--and greed; his dignity, pride--and hidden shame. It is a story that sweeps through the twentieth century, bringing to light not just America's national game, but the birth (and the price) of modern national celebrity.\u003c\/body\u003e","brand":"Simon \u0026 Schuster","offers":[{"title":"Joe Dimaggio: The Hero's Life | Richard Ben Cramer | Book | 9780684865478 | Used: Very Good | Sports Writing 1559757","offer_id":50581912355074,"sku":"1559757","price":26.72,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0609\/3327\/5906\/files\/61kDHL6S09L.jpg?v=1791011336","url":"https:\/\/boswellsbooks.com\/products\/joe-dimaggio-the-heros-life","provider":"Boswell's Books","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
