"I wanted to see what size tennis shoe Ivan Lendl wore and I
thought, 'Where the heck is my copy of "The Bud Collins History of
Tennis?"'" --Don Imus, host, "Imus in the Morning" radio
program
"If you know nothing about tennis, this book is for you. And if you
know everything about tennis--Hah!--Bud knows more, so this book is
for you too!" --Martina Navratilova, nine-time Wimbledon singles
champion
"No tennis encyclopedia could be written by anyone but Bud Collins
because Bud Collins is the walking tennis encyclopedia--the game's
barefoot professor. The only thing missing about the sport from his
new edition is a section about Bud himself. But everything else is
there--and it's easy to open and use for the whole family." --Frank
Deford, author, commentator, and "Sports Illustrated"
contributor
"We can't move forward if we don't understand and appreciate our
past. [This book] not only provides us with accurate reporting of
the rich tennis history, it keeps us current on the progress of the
sport today." --Billie Jean King
