The Big Bam 下载 pdf 电子版 epub 免费 txt 2025

He was the Sultan of Swat. The Caliph of Clout. The Wizard of Whack. The Bambino. And simply, to his teammates, the Big Bam. From the award-winning author of the New York Times bestseller Ted Williams comes the thoroughly original, definitively ambitious, and exhilaratingly colorful biography of the largest legend ever to loom in baseball—and in the history of organized sports.

“[Montville is] one of America’s best sportswriters.” — Chicago Tribune

Babe Ruth was more than baseball’s original superstar. For eighty-five years, he has remained the sport’s reigning titan. He has been named Athlete of the Century . . . more than once. But who was this large, loud, enigmatic man? Why is so little known about his childhood, his private life, and his inner thoughts? In The Big Bam , Leigh Montville, whose recent New York Times bestselling biography of Ted Williams garnered glowing reviews and offered an exceptionally intimate look at Williams’s life, brings his trademark touch to this groundbreaking, revelatory portrait of the Babe.

Based on newly discovered documents and interviews—including pages from Ruth’s personal scrapbooks — The Big Bam traces Ruth’s life from his bleak childhood in Baltimore to his brash entrance into professional baseball, from Boston to New York and into the record books as the world’s most explosive slugger and cultural luminary. Montville explores every aspect of the man, paying particular attention to the myths that have always surrounded him. Did he really hit the “called shot” homer in the 1932 World Series? Were his home runs really “the farthest balls ever hit” in countless ballparks around the country? Was he really part black—making him the first African American professional baseball superstar? And was Ruth the high-octane, womanizing, heavy-drinking “fatso” of legend . . . or just a boyish, rudderless quasi-orphan who did, in fact, take his training and personal conditioning quite seriously?

At a time when modern baseball is grappling with hyper-inflated salaries, free agency, and assorted controversies, The Big Bam brings back the pure glory days of the game. Leigh Montville operates at the peak of his abilities, exploring Babe Ruth in a way that intimately, and poignantly, illuminates a most remarkable figure.

• 找很久的书

  　　我十五岁之前，阅读量不算太少，但眼界不够开阔，其中的最大恶习，就是中文作品读的太多。有一阵子十分偏执地认为中文写作的要以就是尽可能的展示文字之美。其时，汪曾祺未尝对我的阅读有任何助益，毕飞宇尚未成为我的偶像，刘索拉的文字风格是我一时大爱。

  　　那时候的思维远远未有开阔，其时，有一辑“黑马文丛”正值大红。直陈其是，那时候的余杰文字震撼我心，是他让我重新观察了文字的功用。

  　　要说的是“黑马文丛”中有一册书叫做《47楼207》的，作者孔庆东近年愈加红火，其时，写的则是些调戏文字，我读后大为欣喜，我总归是喜欢些好玩好笑的东西。

  　　《47楼207》本是《北大往事》中的一篇，我从些偏门的信息里获得《北大往事》是一本妙书，那时候便想要买来一读。然而那时候买书局限在那么几家店，着实不知哪里有卖，又不用网络，也向来是不去图书馆的，总是是错过了。

  　　到2008年，《北大往事》以珍藏版之名重版，买来再看，混没有了当时所想得的震撼，恐怕是这些年岁月累加，读书的眼界也总算开阔点了吧。

  　　据说《北大往事珍藏版》中有所增删，我没有看过第一版，也不知道怎样做对比，然而我总算是通读了这本书的，要说的是有那么些文字着实啰哩叭嗦，真是一点名校风范也没有了的。更有那么些文字，见识与文笔尚不及一把报刊作者，也不晓得怎么竟然编选进了此书。

  　　读这本书时，确有别有用心之处。因是学生的回忆，总想当做野史来读的。不过名校生的风格大约是以人为本，写自己嬉闹往事的多，兼而又是游戏文字，总要做出些魏晋风度来的，散文下笔一过千年，难免就散去了原想记下的感想，随笔总随雨打风吹，大家伙都是有身家的人，断不会拿出精品来给文集凑份子。

  　　我用我的少年心来思慕这本书，到了2008年，大概我利欲熏心，早已无有纯净的读书心了，看不出这书的好处。有些地方浅淡地记下来，或者一二所感，或者一二所得，但总有所不知足，甚而是一点点的失望。

  　　大概是少年的读书记忆太深刻，又总妄图从书中获知获有人生的真理。而对于年代的思慕，对于诗歌的崇敬，在我心中蒸腾了那么写剔透的庄严。冀望有那么一册书，包含着我的少年梦想，预示也展示我的愁苦欢欣。

  　　我总是在找这样一本书，心有不甘地不断找这本记忆中或者想象中的书。也许我不该找，也许我该写这样一本书。
