PostSportsPlus: Who was the real Yogi Berra? A must-read biography details the man behind the malaprops
That brand of accidental wise man played an integral role in making Yogi a multi-generational icon. And it also undersold him. The real Berra possessed a depth and intelligence that belied his simple narrative of being simple. And, like the rest of his species, he wasn’t perfect.“Yogi: A Life Behind the Mask,”
a 2020 biography written by Jon Pessah. I wouldn’t call it “warts and all,” because you won’t find any bona fide warts here. Yogi was by all accounts, including this one, a decent, honorable man. Yet this masterful book details, painstakingly, what made Yogi Yogi, from his blue-collar upbringing in St. Louis to his time serving the United States in World War II to a season-by-season accounting of his playing career to his managing and coaching to his final years as a Yankees dignitary.
