Customer Review: Basketball Legends Captured in a Legendary Book
This hardcover book by Mallozzi is one of my most treasured books. It is a large hardcover book with a glossy front and glossy dustjacket. It features about 300 of basketballs all time great players. Each featured player is allocated a page which has some narrative about the player and his career. There is a 'fact file' on each player which lists : Birthdate, height, length of NBA career, major teams, records/awards. Each feature also had a large photo, generally of the player in action and a smaller photo of the player where available. The photos are in glorious colour apart from the earlier photos of legends such as 'Pistol Pete' Maravich. There are also a number of 'special features' in the book highlighting some great basketballing moments. Full of facts and action photos this book will not disappoint basketball fans. For the older reader this book will bring back fantastic memories. I can't recommend this book highly enough. Superb, essential purchase for basketball and sporting fans alike.
