1.0 out of 5 stars Get Nancy's own book instead :-), June 18, 1998

By A Customer

This review is from: Dreams of Gold: The Nancy Kerrigan Story (Paperback)

Basically, this book won't tell you anything the media hasn't beaten to death over the past 4 years. It may have been informative when it was first published, but most people- and especially skating fans- will learn nothing new from this book.

I'd definitely recommend Nancy's own book over "Edge of Glory," which ends prior to the 1994 Olympics.

4.0 out of 5 stars Fast-to-Press, expanded magazine story before '94 Games., December 31, 1997

By A Customer

This review is from: Dreams of Gold: The Nancy Kerrigan Story (Paperback)

Recall one of the first, FASTEST paperbacks to hit shelves? It was of the never expected 1980 U.S. Olympic hockey victory over the Soviet team at Lake Placid. That book was on shelves a few DAYS after the victory. Anyway, the same here with the Coffey/Bondy book: it's after the Harding attack in Detroit, but hits the book shelves before they even get to Lillehammer. Taken for it's worth, it's a good, fast paperback of an abridged bio. of Ms. Kerrigan. Her early training, family relationships, and, yup, even covers the baton attack. If your flight is over 1-1/2 hours, you'll finish before you land.

5.0 out of 5 stars This is excellent for all Nancy Kerrigan fans, December 13, 2008
