Title: Promised so much ... delivered so little
Product review: Those readers who gave this book 4 or 5 stars must not read many football books. Franklin's Foer's writing style is good and for that reason I give him two stars rather than one. His research was patchy and one-sided and he doesn't reveal any new information.I have to agree with all the other negative reviews of this book. Like so many teams full of superstars, it fell flat. I'd recommend anyone who was disappointed with it to get a copy of Simon Kuper's excellent book, "Football against the Enemy," or "The Miracle of Castel Di Sangro," by Joe McGinniss, which is a magnificent read.
