Customer Reviews

Best Sports Book I Ever Read!

Mr. Mirlis' capacity to capture the thoughts and recollections of these wonderful sportsmen (and women) really made me (and my friends) feel like I was "being there" (of course, no pun intended!). In all seriousness, this book held my interest and I'm proud to say that I am not only a friend of Mr. Mirlis', but that I also own his wonderfully written book.

Games for All The Ages

Having attended several of the sporting events and watched many of the others described by many of the contributors, I really enjoyed re-living these moments in time. I think a sequel would be a great follow up read. Mr. Mirlis should be commended on his ability to gather such a strong group of contributors.

This is great!

This book is so great! I've bought several copies for FATHER'S DAY gifts for family members and friend who love sports.

Recommend for all

I would totally recommend this book for all to read. Nice and relaxing and makes you wonder about the events you have been to in your lifetime. Maybe they should be in "Being There II"
