Synopsis "Fathers & Sons & Sports: Great Writing by Buzz Bissinger, John Ed Bradley, Bill Geist, Donald Hall, Mark Kriegel, Norman Maclean, and others (in English)"
Powerful stories about the way sports can bring together fathers and sons, to work out their differences and express their love for each other. Fathers & Sons & Sports presents a powerful lineup of real-world stories about fathers and sons playing one-on-one in the game of life, written by such great sportswriters and authors as Henry Aaron, as told to Cal Fussman - Michael J. Agovino - Buzz Bissinger - Jeff Bradley - John Ed Bradley - James Brown - Darcy Frey - Tom Friend - Bill Geist - Mike Golic - Donald Hall - Paul Hoffman - Mark Kriegel - Norman Maclean - John Buffalo Mailer - Ron Reagan - Peter Richmond - Jeremy Schaap - Lew Schneider - Dan Shaughnessy - Paul Solotaroff - John Jeremiah Sullivan - Wright Thompson - Steve Wulf The unforgettable accounts here include the stories of a professional football player passing on his father' s secrets to his own sons, a severely disabled boy discovering joy on a surfboard, a wealthy NFL player taking his coddled children back to the mean streets that made him, and a major league manager who must face the hard fact that nothing, not even unconditional love, can save his son. Anyone who has ever been a father or a son will see himself in these moving snapshots of family life at its most emotional. Whether the stories take place on a diamond, a court, a gridiron, a fairway, or a chessboard, they're all about the same subject: fatherhood, one of the world's most intriguing sports.
