Last Year in Sports

As is always true with these annual "Best of ..." books, there are several notable omissions that deserved to be included, but there is enough good material to make it well worth its price. More than anything it is a nice reminder of all that went on in sports in 2001, with several well written profiles of athletes, events, and sports that may not have received much coverage but are still fascinating and interesting to learn about. If you like sports or sports writing, this is the best anthology available every year so I would recommend it.
