Near-fine condition. Stated First Edition. NO remainder marks. Inside-top-front dustcover flap has been price-clipped. Tight spine, bright pages. ONLY writing/mark inside book is gift inscription in book front on blank page. 312 pages. Synopsis Looking to escape the NFL for a while, sports journalist Austin Murphy spends a sabbatical at St. John's College, a small Benedictine school in rural Minnesota, with the best record in college foot ball history. After fifteen years covering professional sports for Sports Illustrated, Murphy writes, "How unusual to go an entire season without interviewing a felon!" Instead, he spends the season with the winningest coach in football, Coach John Gagliardi, a smiling wiseman who has forgotten more about the game than most of his peers know. But he hasn't forgotten the most important thing: that the coaches a game. In the typically macho world of sports, this is a story about kindness and humility. It's also the story of a family, and what happens when a harried, frazzled couple has an opportunity however brief to slow down. Murphy, an immensely funny and appealing writer, brings his considerable charm to this already compelling story.
