The Man Who Invented Basketball: James Naismith and His Amazing Game by Edwin Brit Wyckoff
My rating: 3 of 5 stars
This book has more content than the book about basketball I reviewed a few days ago: [b:Hoop Genius: How a Desperate Teacher and a Rowdy Gym Class Invented Basketball|14843178|Hoop Genius How a Desperate Teacher and a Rowdy Gym Class Invented Basketball|John Coy|http://d202m5krfqbpi5.cloudfront.net/books/1356086110s/14843178.jpg|20496859], which is nice. It is definitely an older style of book, though: more text, lots of old time photos. Hoop Genius would make a better read-aloud; this book would make a better "read to self" book. It isn't as exciting as Hoop Genius, but there is more to think about.
