Jeff Ruby has penned this lively and touching autobiography, with assistance from noted biographer Robert Windeler, who interviewed more than 70 of Ruby's friends and admirers from all decades of his life, to flesh out his story. Starting with his fatherless childhood on the Jersey Shore, running away from his problematic, alcoholic mother at 15, and living on his own. Jeff essentially raised himself and forged his own destiny. By the time this rootless runaway was a senior at Neptune High School, he was New Jersey all-state in football, had straight A's, and went to his dream university, Cornell against all odds. He came to Cincinnati to be near his beloved Reds, and has stayed to become the man who some call The King of Cincinnati. Here is the whole story...not counting tomorrow.
