Ray Didinger-Master Writer

Ray Didinger is my favorite writer. I am a huge sports fan and I just love reading his work. This book, One Last Read, is a personal collection of his favorite works from throughout his career. The different articles he included are amazing. I specifically enjoyed his article about Reggie White, me being a huge fan of his. He also includes his speech introducing Tommy McDonald, an Eagles great, into the Hall of Fame. A must read for all sports fans, especcially Philadelphia sports fans.

Fantastic Collection

This is a must read for Philadelphia sports fans but also for anyone who appreciates well written articles and thoughtful opinions. Mr Didinger is in the writer's wing of the Pro Football Hall of Fame for a reason. And because it is a collection of articles throughout the years it is something one could stop and start several times without missing a beat.
