A sports era preserved in print,

Amazon Verified Purchase(What's this?)
This review is from: The Golden Age of Amateur Basketball: The AAU Tournament, 1921-1968 (Paperback)
The author does an excellent job detailing 40-plus years of amateur basketball history in a long-ago era that preceded today's "all-about-money" NBA. It is interesting to note that many of the great players of that time wound up with successful careers working for the companies for which they played basketball--Denver Central Bankers, Akron Goodyears, Peoria Caterpillars, Bartlesville Phillips 66,etc. As one who grew up watching those teams, I have to think that sports today would better off today with the old National Industrial Basketball League than the $100 million contracts we now have.
