I see that Jane Leavy (who has written great books about Mantle & Koufax) has a new Ruth book out

I thought Robert Creamer's was good, even though it's old now.

Hard to go wrong with anything Robert Creamer wrote. It's more recent and I haven't gotten to it yet, but Montvilles' is reportedly well done also.
