In the mid-1960s, George Plimpton talked his way into the Detroit
Lions' pre-season training camp and in doing so set the bar for
participatory sports journalism. With his characteristic wit,
Plimpton recounts his experience of a month practising and living
with the team - getting to know the pressures and tensions rookies
confront, the hijinks, taking behind the scenes snaps and capturing
a host of American football rites and rituals. Plimpton might not
have made it as a quarterback, but fifty years after its first
publication, Paper Lion remains one of the most insightful and
entertaining classics of sports literature.
