COMMUNITY REVIEWS
Good book submitted by jwoolard on July 11, 2019, 12:52pm This book is amazing, especially for Michigan basketball fans, like me. It tells the story of the Michigan 1991-1993 team who were dubbed the fab five. The author gets many interviews with players, coaches, and people connected with the program, and weaves it into an amazing story of how these players changed basketball forever. The only downside is that for kids the amount of cussing in the book is a lot, and some adult references are in there as well. All in all, though, this is a great book for basketball junkies.
