Negative Positive
Title: Great story, average telling
Review: The subject matter of this book was fascinating, but I just found the telling of it left me wanting. The first three-quarters of the book is a dry re-telling of history, much of it not particularly relevant to the rivalry. And was there no attempt to revive the football series for 30 years after it was cancelled? There's no talk of it in the book and if it didn't happen, it should be noted. It seems unlikely that nobody wanted to revive it.
Is the review positive or negative?
