The Ultimate Book of Sports Lists

Rating:
Summary: The ultimate sports book, period
Review: This is an updated version of the original Ultimate Book of Sports Lists, published more than 10 years ago. Fortunately, the authors have changed little, since the old book was the best sports book I have ever read. Don't be fooled by the title; this is no mere reference book. Instead, it contains hundreds of anecdotes -- the longest-lasting tennis volley ever recorded, the soccer game that sparked an international armed conflict, the first gay football player to come out, etc., all grouped into categories. I cannot imagine anyone being disappointed by this book.
