Rating: Summary: Great Read Review: What a wonderful book. As the son of a USMA '59 grad, I've been to quite a few A/N games. I vivdly remember the season Army had that year, even reading the book 2 years after the events took place. He captures the essence of the game so well, but with such great detail. I wish he could cover the A/N game every year, since what he wrote about is by no means unique. the stories like those he tells are there EVERY YEAR. John does such a wonderful job, I can't wait for his next book on the Patriot League Basketball season. One last thing...Go ARMY!! Beat Navy!!
Rating: Summary: Good but out of subject Review: With this book,I expect to have a complete coverage of the games between Army & Navy in the last hundred years.In place I have the complete story of both colleges with some highlights of Army-Navy games.The book is divise in two part,one chapter on Army story the next on Navy story.You have one chapter about Army-Navy games and the two or three next chapters talk about games against Notre Dame or Boston college or the problems with players discipline at West Point,etc.That a very good book,I recomend it to everyone who want to learn about Army or Navy story but if like me you want a complete coverage of Army-Navy games tradition it's better for you to look somewhere else.I don't give only three stars cause the book is bad,that a very good book but they pass too much time to talk about things that have nothing to see with Army-Navy games.
