Book Reviews of NBA at 50
Book Review: Entertaining and Educating Book On NBA History
Summary: 5 Stars
I bought this book for myself right before the start of this year's NBA season to get in the mood for basketball again which is my favorite sport. This book does a great job in covering the history of all the NBA seasons from 1946-1996, the first 50 seasons, covering the great players from Wilt Chamberlain to Michael Jordan. It's a must have for all fans of basketball.
Summary of NBA at 50
NBA at 50 is a beautiful photographic and oral history that captures the glory, spirit, and fire of the NBA, the most popular professional sports league in America. More than 100 never-before-published photographs capture players in unseen moments. With hardcover sales of 200,000 copies, NBA at 50 touches fans as a true tribute to the power of the game. Full color.No sport markets itself with anywhere near the razzle-dazzle that pro basketball does, and no book has ever caught the high-energy spirit of the league quite like this anniversary volume. The action photography is stirring, but it's the graphically thrilling homage it pays to the 50 players selected as the greatest of the National Basketball Association's first half century that truly raises The NBA at 50 to a level well above the rim.
