Robert P. (monastic-monk) reviewed on 8/3/2010 + 4 more book reviews

A real-life "Rocky" story set during the depression in a small Texas town, where 12 woefully young boys rock the football establishment. It is a great read whether you are a sports fan or not, but especially if you grew up in a small high school where football reigned supreme as I did in the early 1960's. Jim Dent's storytelling kept me mesmerized almost through the entire book.

I especially liked knowing what happened to the boys and coach afterwards. Highly recommended!
