Playing for Keeps: Legendary Athletes in Combat During World War II presents the combat experiences of the greatest athletes from the "Greatest Generation." Whether pitching no-hitters, scoring touchdowns, or winning Olympic gold medals, these superstars were a rare breed. But they would also prove their mettle in a different arena, taking part in some of the biggest battles in history.

Playing for Keeps also features rare photographs, insightful battle reports, and personal diaries, and many more, including never-before-published images.

Chapters include:

  • Barney Ross (3-time world boxing champion)
  • Yogi Berra (Hall of Fame catcher and cultural icon)
  • Tom Harmon (1940 Heisman Trophy Winner)
  • Emlen Tunnell (The first African-American inducted into the Pro Football Hall of Fame)
  • Billy Fiske (1932 & 1936 Olympic Bobsled Champion)
  • Warren Spahn (Winningest left-hander in Major League Baseball history)

And many more
