Front Jacket Excerpt:
"This ambitious, comprehensive work, A Century Of S****ts, has captured all
of the exciting moments of it. The book covers more than 40 differnt
s****ts, from such mushrooming spectator giant as baseball and football, to
obscure pastimes such as curling and jiu-jitsu. It is liberally
illustrated
both in color and black-and- white. This is not merely an encyclopedia. It
is the moving story of the birth of all of these s****ts and their
development through the last 100 years. The great personalities-Babe Ruth
in baseball, Jack Dempsey in boxing, Bill Tilden in tennis, Bobby Jones in
golf-all come alive again in vivid accounts of each s****t's evolution-its
triumphs and its tribulations. The book is flavored with anecdotes
concerning the great stars. The great contests and spectacles are revived.
Every chapter in A Century Of S****ts was done by a specialist, a staff
writer of the far flung Associated Press who has lived with the s****t
about
which he writes and who is familiar with its people and events."
