Yankee fans have bragging rights to call their team the greatest of all time. Not only have the Yankees won the most World Series championships and placed the most players in the Hall of Fame, but the franchise is also the most widely featured team in news, social media, and books. This groundbreaking work gives fans what they love: the best stories and a mother lode of data right through 2016.
