As part of the storied New York Yankees, DiMaggio hit throughout the 1941 season and kept hitting for 56 straight games—a sports story that united the country on the brink of World War II. DiMaggio's Streak is widely regarded as the greatest unbroken sports record in history. His fame immortalized, he became the hero that Americans needed. The book includes an author’s note; statistics from DiMaggio's 1941 regular season, his Streak, and his lifetime; a detailed bibliography; and source notes.</p></div>
