Legendary Sports Writers of the Golden Age

Grantland Rice, Red Smith, Shirley Povich, and W. C. Heinz

Beschreibung

This book details the lives and careers of four sports-writing greats-Grantland Rice, Red Smith, Shirley Povich, and W. C. Heinz-and the legendary athletes and events they covered for decades. These men all wrote during what is often considered sport's Golden Age, lifting sports reporting to heights that it is unlikely to reach again.
