This is an omnibus of Red Smith's greatest columns- a unique record not only of the work of one of the nation's finest prose stylists but of the past fifty years in sport. In these 128 columns, many chosen from personal scrapbooks and never collected before, we find Red Smith at the key sporting events of our times and read his views on everything from baseball and fishing to basketball and track. Has a book plate from a prior owner. Both the Dust Jacket and the book are in very good condition. I have around 200 books written by and about sportswriters in stock. Discounts are available when you purchase multiple items on the same order.
