Francona: The Red Sox Years by Terry Francona

4.0

---

Thought I was reading a Terry Francona book. Turns out I was reading a Dan Shaughnessy book with quotes from Terry Francona along the way. Read like a sequel to 2007's Feeding the Monster - with 2012 being the inevitable result of that Monster. Haven't read the Torre Years, but I bet this book just imitates that (likely) better work. That being said - this was a pretty good read as backdrop to the Sox winning the 2013 World Series. :)
