A history worthy of the greatest basketball program

This is the best UK basketball history that I have ever read. It was extremely well researched and written, and combined a genuine love for the University of Kentucky and its program with a recognition that wrongs have been done in the past. It is a "warts and all" story, but one still sympathetic to the subject. The pictures and anecdotes are all great, and in the appendix there is a comprehensive statistical summary of all the games and all the season records. If you are a Wildcat fan, buy this book.
