With Funny Cide and Seabiscuit in it...you think I would miss this? The whole book is terrific, especially as a gift for the guy you can never get off the couch in front of the TV, yelling his head off for whatever: baseball teams, football teams, boxers, the Olympics, horseraces, Wimbledon. Plus there's a bonus. A DVD. How could you go wrong?
FABULOUS SPORTS BOOK
Published by Thriftbooks.com User , 19 years ago
There are 50 chapters, each about underdogs and how they triumphed. The chapters are in "ranking order," meaning the author assigned ranks to each based on a poll of sportswriters. I thought this was an interesting approach. The stories are very well written and are accompanied by fabulous photos, some of the best I've seen. I especially like the DVD. Jim Lampley is the show host and he offers a lot of insight into the games, since he was at many of them, as he relates in the program. It is a very long and huge book that will take lots of time to read. Browsing, though is fun too, since there's a variety of side information that supplements the text. I liked the whole concept a lot and plan to give the book as Christmas gifts, which should be well received, since it's not just a good book, the DVD is really wonderful, very inspirational.
UP LIFTING BOOK
Published by Thriftbooks.com User , 19 years ago
I realy liked this book. It was more than just great sports stories. It really made me feel like I can lick the world with one hand behind my back. If these guys who Krantz wrote abbout can do the impossible, everyone can with the proper motivation and training. BRAVO. DVD just as good. The whole thing is a rare and uplifting experience.
