Produktbeschreibung
Stanley Woodward (1895– 1964) was a veteran sports writer, newspaperman, and sports editor of the "New York Herald Tribune"; indeed, some believe he was the greatest of all sports editors. "Paper Tiger" is his lively and vivid account of his life as an athlete, sailor, war correspondent, and metropolitan journalist. Whether discussing his war experiences, the world of sports, or the tough and exciting world of newspaper life, Woodward speaks with a rare directness. When he doesn' t like something or someone, he makes no bones about it. Yet, despite all of his often acerbic comments, we always have the feeling that the author' s honesty is matched by his fairness. Partisan he may be; vindictive and sour he is not. Although Paper Tiger will appeal especially to sports fans, anyone who wants to know the inside story of newspaper life will find it a fascinating book.
