Celebrates fifty years of America's most prominent sports magazine. The six-part book plays to the strength of the magazine " The Stories" and "The Photographs" sections are the largest. The 35 articles shortened so as to entice readers for more information. The pictures are often bigger than they were in magazine. Readers are invited to look closely at least on these two significant pictures : bizzares tyles of a 60s women track team, a shot of Bill Russel and Wilt Chamberlain defining basketball. The section " The Covers" has a listing of the entire magazine cover images, both in chronological order and grouped in similar topics.
