This review is from: Lessons From the Legends: Defense: The Authoritative Reference on All Aspects of Defense from the Most Respected Coaches in America (Paperback)
Coach Krause and Coach Pim have edited an interesting book that is a collection of essays on defense from the legends of the collegiate coaching profession. A total of 29 sections are presented for the reader.
Jerry Krause is well known for his efforts to provide instructional materials on how to teach the fundamentals of the game of basketball. This book is as good as the others Coach Krause, this time with the help of Coach Pim, has produced in the past.
