Paul Kirk
Harvard Common Press, 1997
Learn from a master
You can buy lots of books on how to cook barbeque, but very few from accomplished masters such as Paul Kirk. Only two things surpass his ego in this book: His willingness to share some great recipes and insights, and his recipes themselves. Pretty much every sauce, ...

Much better than the movie!
Excellent account of what playing football for Paul Bryant was like when he was possibly at his meanest. Frustrations from dealing with The University Of Kentucky's lack of support for their winning football program (which Bryant was responsible for) and the job of ...

Paul Kirk's Championship Barbecue: Barbecue Your Way to Greatness with 575 Lip-Smackin' Recipes from the ...
Paul Kirk
Harvard Common Press, 2004
Great Recipes, Good Instruction
I'd rate this as a great recipe book, and a good but not great BBQ instruction book. The author is not shy about telling you how good he is and he wants you to be just as proficient at cooking up great food.
The book's recipes cover all kinds of meats, including ...

Championship Swim Training
As a rookie coach I have found this publication invaluable. Although aimed at the 'top end' swimmer, with a little adjustment the lesson plans can be adapted to swimmers of any level. The drills are well laid out in a logical progression that benefits development of ...

Glory Road: My Story of the 1966 NCAA Basketball Championship and How One Team Triumphed Against the Odds
Don Haskins, Daniel Wetzel
Hyperion, 2005
A few observations from someone who was there
Your current published reviews are enthusiastic but in some cases contain factual inaccuracies. The movie and the book are related in title and subject (Don Haskins); but that is about as far as it goes. The movie which focuses on 1966 is moving and concludes with a ...
