As the title indicates, this is a selection of sportswriter Red Smith's favorite sports stories. There are some gems here, mostly from the first half of the 20th century. My favorites are the baseball stories, particularly Jimmy Breslin's story about the 1962 New York Mets (the worst team ever), Grantland Rice's homage to Babe Ruth, and John Updike's coverage of Ted Williams' final season and game. But there are many others I liked, and the best of them bring out hidden aspects of the sports that make me want to learn more about them. ( ) sin reseñas | añadir una reseña
From The House that Ruth Built to the grass courts of Wimbledon, from the opening tip to the nineteenth hole, Red Smith's Press Box offers a bird's-eye view of the greatest moments in sports history. Literary or low-down, ringside or rinkside, the meticulous eye and wide-angle wit of these classics promise great reading for every sports fan. No se han encontrado descripciones de biblioteca. |
