5.0 out of 5 stars
Beautiful coffee table book on The Swamp
Make no mistake, this isn't a history book on the Florida Gators. What it is, though, is a great "coffee table" book on the game day atmosphere in The Swamp where the Florida Gators play (and opponents fear to tread!). The star of the book (as it should be for coffee table books!) are the photographs. The photographer, Glenn Danforth, is world class and it...

It's ok but not what you would expect
I bought this book expecting that it would be a history of FL Field and the Swamp. It is not even close. It's an OK coffee table book that has some ok pictures of gameday activity during the Zook years and some text that does give a brief history of how Florida Field was developed. There is a nice interview with Mr. 2 Bits but a good portion of the book is talking...

This review is from: Florida: Saturdays at the Swamp (Hardcover)
Make no mistake, this isn't a history book on the Florida Gators. What it is, though, is a great "coffee table" book on the game day atmosphere in The Swamp where the Florida Gators play (and opponents fear to tread!).
The star of the book (as it should be for coffee table books!) are the photographs. The photographer, Glenn Danforth, is world class and it shows in the photos - they're stunningly beautiful and make the book a worthy one to have in your collection. Not only that, the photos are often taken from unique perspectives and areas that the every day fan doesn't have access to, giving even more insight into what goes on. I love the book and so does my Dad, whom I bought a copy for. Every Gator ought to own a copy.

It's an OK coffee table book that has some ok pictures of gameday activity during the Zook years and some text that does give a brief history of how Florida Field was developed. There is a nice interview with Mr. 2 Bits but a good portion of the book is talking about Bull Gator Stumpy Harris and his tailgating activities. Overall just an average book. Buy the history of FL Football which is far better.
