I just read The Big Bam: The Life and Times of Babe Ruth by Leigh Montville. It was fantastic and I believe it came out in 2006? It spends a lot of time discussing Ruth's years at St. Mary's orphanage in Baltimore as well as the inconsistencies in previous reports concerning his family. I am sure it must have been released in 2006 because Montville briefly discusses recent steroid allegations concerning Barry Bonds and Mark Mcgwire. I would highly recommend it.
