The hitting advice and his bio were great. I could do without the salary talk at the end. But without it a short book might be even shorter.

Tony's book enumerates a lot that is left out of Ted Williams' book. Their philosophies seem to be disharmonious, but if you follow both, I think you will become the best hitter that you can possibly be.
