Recenzii
"Even if you have never picked up a tennis racket or watched a tennis match, you will unconditionally enjoy this wonderful book about a bygone era when athletes were gentlemen first and competitors second. . . . Wood's tales of the now (and then) famous is delightful, and at times sobering." --www.hamptons.com
"[Wood] is George Plimpton-esque in his marvelous prose which gives one a Great Gatsby feel to recollections of the champions he competed (very successfully) against and then observed through the modern era of Roger Federer and Rafael Nadal." --www.WorldTennisMagazine.com (July 14, 2011)
"The book's charm lies in the way it recreates early 20th century tennis history. . . . A rich source of stories about tennis history." -- Long Island Tennis Magazine (December 1, 2011)
