Summary: A brilliant book by America's top football writer
Review: Do you know who Rudy Bukich is? If so, you're the type of hard-core football fan who will love Peter King's Greatest Quarterbacks. If you're a football fan and the name of Mr. Bukich doesn't ring a bell, you'll learn a lot from this excellent book. Sports Illustrated's Peter King is (in my humble opinion) tied with his colleague Paul Zimmerman for the title of America's No. 1 football writer. King provides a historical perspective that allows a comparison of great old-timers like Otto Graham and Sammy Baugh with today's stars like Brett Favre and Troy Aikman. King ranks the Top 50 quarterbacks in the history of the game and offers clear explanations for his selections. I would also be remiss if I didn't mention the wealth of photographs provided in this book, which makes it a great gift idea for children who might not read the whole thing now but will surely treasure it for years to come. (I might just get an extra copy for my nephew.) No football fan's bookshelf is complete without Peter King's Greatest Quarterbacks, the best football book to come along in years. As for the identity of Mr. Bukich, I wouldn't dream of giving it away here. You'll just have to buy the book.
