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

Get Nancy's own book instead :-)
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.

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,
