Book Description

Publication Date: August 18, 2001

So you think you're a fan of the 2000 NFC champions? How much do you really know about one of the most storied franchises in the NFL, those Sunday-afternoon heroes who have brought fortunne, glory, and two Vince Lombardi trophies to New York?

Do you know
What Giants defensive lineman of the fifities and sixties has been an actor, singer, political activist, and minister?
What number Frank Gifford wore?
Who holds the Giants' single-game record for receptions?
Who is the Giants' all-time leading scorer?
Which team the Giants have faced more than any other?

From the club's beginnings in 1924 to last year's incredible NFC Championship season, from the agony of the Giants' 1958 NFL Championship defeat to the nail-biting ecstacy of their 20-19 Super Bowl XXV triumph, from Rosey to Reeves, Y.A. to L.T., it's all in here--over 350 questions and answers, as well as sidebars and photos gathered by lifelong Giants diehard Michael Lichtenstein. With an introduction by the late, great Marty Glickman, this is the one book that no Giants fan can do without.

This review is from: The New York Giants Trivia Book: Revised and Updated (Paperback)

I received this book as a gift. I thought it would be fun to have a contest, via email, with my Giant fan friends. I sent one question a day to the contestants. I have been through 46 questions and found 4 answers to be wrong. I question his research.
This book otherwise has been fun. It brings back a lot of fun memories.
