Synopsis

This autobiography is about one of America’s greatest sport writers, Grantland Rice, who at the time he published this book, had written more than 22,000 columns, 7,000 sets of verse, over 1,000 magazine articles – plus radio outbursts for 32 seasons. He was still turning out a column six days a week for some 80 newspapers throughout the country. He wrote about the greats, Ty Cobb, Bobby Jones, Babe Ruth, Gene Tunney, Bill Tilden, Knute Rockne and the Four Horsemen, Helen Wills, Tommy Hitchcock, Jim Thorpe, Ben Hogan, and many others. Here are profiles, insights, comments, and straightforward reporting. Historical, vintage.
