If you are a Spartan fan, this is a great book. It will help you settle arguments/bar bets with other Spartan fans. If you went to UofM, try to contain your envy.

This review is from: The Spartan Sports Encyclopedia (Hardcover)
Excellent, huge book detailing MSU sports over many years. Could have used more photos, I think. A must for Spartan fans. I got mine from the used listings, very cheaply and have passed on to other MSU fans.
