5.0 out of 5 stars Brought back so many great memories for me!, February 8, 1999
By A Customer
This review is from: Fifty Years, Fifty Heroes: A Celebration of Minnesota Sports (Hardcover)
Great book about the history of Minnesota sports and its heroes. If you're like me, you've probably forgotten many of the great memories Bernstein brings back to life. He covers the Vikings, Twins, Gophers, North Stars, State High School Tournaments and much more. Everyone who has made Minnesota proud in the sports arena seems to be in this book: From Tarkenton, Puckett, Killebrew and Cris Carter to Willie Burton, Chuck Foreman, Sandy Stephens, Elgin Baylor and Patty Berg. The author not only documents the history, but includes entertaining quotes from the athletes and their teammates. This is a really fun book to read and own. The book is hard cover and loaded with photographs. I have mine displayed on my coffee table. I strongly recommend it.

5.0 out of 5 stars The perfect Father's Day gift for Minnesota sports fan Dads, May 14, 1998
By A Customer
This review is from: Fifty Years, Fifty Heroes: A Celebration of Minnesota Sports (Hardcover)
I bought Fifty Years, Fifty Heroes for my husband as a Christmas present. He hasn't stopped thanking me. The book is loaded with memorable stories about great moments in Minnesota sports history. Bernstein interviewed everybody who's anybody in Minnesota sports. There are lots of stories told by Minnesota sports legends themselves. For example Jack Morris tells about how his memory of Fran Tarkenton provided the motivation he needed to pitch a nearly flawless game 7 of the 1991 World Series. He was determined not to go down in history as a guy who couldn't win the big one. My husband enjoys reliving memorable moments as seen through the eyes of the athletes, from their unique perspective.
