| Publisher Description: The publication of OH, WHAT A KNIGHT / KNIGHTMARES, a hardcover book on former Indiana University Basketball Coach Bobby Knight. It's actually two books in one. Oh, What A Knight features 160 pages of upbeat, behind-the-scenes stories on Coach Knight. Turn the book over and there's a completely different title - KNIGHTMARES - new preface and new table of contents. KNIGHTMARES has interesting chapters about controversial run-ins Coach Knight has had through the years. Two Books In One As long as you live, you will never see another Bobby Knight, or another book with this unique double format.You will be holding the only book with the full story from both sides on the legendary, controversial coach.It's the wonderful, hilarious, sad, poignant and factual account of the most visible, successful, and talked about character in sports today.This fast moving book takes you behind the scenes, gets you inside the locker rooms, out to the golf links, onto the fishing waters and into the hunting wilds with Knight and his friends - and enemies...never-before-told tales of what really happened from the people who lived it...you'll eavesdrop on it all.You will definitely laugh, you will probably cry, you'll moan and groan and roll your eyes, but you won't stop reading it.In their own words, you'll get the inside scoop from referees and rival coaches, from players and players' parents, the honchos at CBS and Notre Dame who almost hired Knight, Coach's golfing, hunting and fishing pals, Puerto Rican cop and the fan Knight stuffed in a garbage can, the critics, the chair dodging free-throw shooter - it's all here |
