Customer Review: 5.0 out of 5 starsWrite an online review and share = your thoughts with other customers.=20 5 out of 5 stars A great book about a great team., August 27, 2001=20 Reviewer: A reader from Dallas, TX USA =20 Jim Dent's Junction Boys was one of the greatest sports books I ever read,= so I couldn't wait for his next one. It's a different kind of story, but = this book is wonderful too. Dent knows how to make his characters come ali= ve, from the great coach, Bud Wilkinson, to all those great players, and t= here were quite a few during the Streak. No, Wilkinson isn't portrayed as = a saint here, because he wasn't--he was a human being, and that's how Dent= shows him, warts and all. I'd rather read the truth, and if John Herman B= ell says "this book is as true as true can be" (that's what he told the Da= ily Oklahoman), that's good enough for me. The best part of the book is ge= tting to know all those great players, and reading about all those great g= ames they played--and there were some great games. Also, getting behind th= e scenes is really cool, to see how the players and the coaches prepared (= or didn't). There are a lot of funny stories, too. All in all, a great fol= low-up to the great Junction Boys.=20 -----Original Message----- From: Felix Zaremba & Co., Inc.
