Price: $19.72
Customer Review:
I must confess - I'm not a huge fan of baseball. Indeed I purchased this book for my father. However, once I began skimming the book - I became hooked. I read it cover to cover in only a couple days. This book showed 21st century statistical methodology as it is brought kicking and screaming into... more info | 4.5 / 5.0

Customer Review:
I was on lunch break at a previous job and reading Walden Pond by Henry David Thoreau for the second time in my life. My co-worker comes up to me and said, "is that a good book, I've never read it?". I told him it was a book I could relate to, because I too like being outside and surrounded by... more info | 4.5 / 5.0

Price: $54.20
Customer Review:
As a huge Colts fan, I was extremely excited to finally get my copy of one of the greatest games the NFL has ever seen. However, just a few pages into the book, I realize that this book is just a poor compilation of a bunch of other books, and was poorly written at that. I was very disappointed to... more info | 4.5 / 5.0

| 6. |  | "Endurance": The True Story of Shackleton's Incredible Voyage to the Antarctic
from Orion (an Imprint of The Orion Publishing Group Ltd )
Customer Review:
Like almost every other reviewer here, I regard Shackleton's odyssey has one of the most incredible tales of human endurance...ever. His men...survive months of exposure to the Antarctic cold, on the floating, shifting ice pack...and nobody dies. If it weren't thoroughly documented it would be an... more info | 4.5 / 5.0

Harvey Penick's Little Red Book: Lessons and Teachings from a Lifetime in Golf first came to my attention in the comic strip Judge Parker.

from Simon & Schuster Audio
Customer Review:
I avoid sports biographies like the plague, but the subject of Vince Lombardi always kept popping up in conversations about sport and coaching methods, even here in Australia. So I decided to buy this amazing book from Amazon and am so glad that I got so much out of the brilliance of David Maraniss'... more info | 5.0 / 5.0
