From the Publisher
Outstanding collection of pieces from acclaimed writers
Over the last few years - with the advent of fanzines, sports supplements and men's magazines - both the nature and the profile of sportswriting in Britain has changed, and in the press box, if not on the field, we are experiencing a Golden Age. This original collection includes pieces from acclaimed writers such as Martin Amis, Colm Toibin and Roddy Doyle, as well as articles by more traditional sportswriters, such as Matthew Engel, Frank Keating and Hugh McIlvanney. All have been inspired by the sports they love. "Simply the best anthology I have read" Glasgow Herald; "Much to please and plenty to admire" New Statesman; "A near perfect compilation with every contribution short enough and good enough to leave one wanting more. Buy it now" FHM; "An outstanding collection...wonderful stuff" Sporting Life
