A compelling account of the historic year.
In this compelling and freewheeling account, Kirkpatrick treats the
tumultuous events of 1969 with the skills of a journalist, a
historian, a sociologist, and a sportswriter and manages to insert
moments of lightness and triviality into his grand tour. . . . . A
worthy addition to the literature of the 1960s.
Kalb asks the kind of common-sense questions you think of from time
to time that never get much of an airing The thing I like about
Elliott is that we disagree more than we agree on the sports scene,
but I learn something from him every time we talk. Good reason to
check his book out. --Peter King
