THE GRANTLAND RICE AWARD PRIZE SPORTS STORIES

By

Pub Date: Nov. 1st, 1962
Publisher: Doubleday

This collection plus an easy chair will provide the broad-gauge sports fan with many happy hours where the immortals perform the impossible -- or at worst, the improbable. The two dozen stories cover the spectrum: Nagurski to Tom McNeeley. There is inevitably a certain unevenness, based on the writer's skill, the depth of the treatment, and subjectively, on the reader's individual interest. A fine assortment and a good gift item for the fan of age 12 and up.
