Reviews
"I know Bruce's work, and I know Pete's contribution to the game. The combination is irresistible. The chapter analyzing Pete and John Wooden is particularly compelling. Every fan of hoops and hoops history should get this book." -Jack McCallum,Sports Illustrated "Enlightening and entertaining on every page. Pete Newell is living history. He has a wonderful basketball mind, and his story has been told by a wonderful writer." -Dan McGrath,Chicago Tribune "Pete Newell is one of the most underrated coaches and people in the history of basketball. Bruce Jenkins' book is stylish and charming and fun--much like the man himself." -John Feinstein "Pete Newell is a basketball treasure, the game's guru, and he is needed now more than ever to educate a fundamentally deficient generation of basketball players. Bruce Jenkins has captured the man and the coach perfectly." -Dave Newhouse,Oakland Tribune "Jenkins' book is an insightful look at one of the game's most renowned coaches, along with his late wife, Florence, a most remarkable woman." -Mai Florence,Los Angeles Times "James Naismith invented basketball. He did so in order that Pete Newell would come along a few years later to perfect it. Newell operates what is called a "Big Man's Camp" each year, but the biggest man of all runs it. Count me among the embarrassed legions who only now realize that the greatest unwritten story in basketball was Pete Newell's. Thanks to Bruce Jenkins, it's unwritten no longer." -Bob Ryan,Boston Globe

Synopsis
A Good Mantakes you back to the smoky haze of Madison Square Garden in the 1950s, when college basketball was king. It transports you to a dead-quiet high school gym in Hawaii, where Shaquille O'Neal is quietly listening to a legend. The Pete Newell story, told with great detail and affection by Bruce Jenkins, is a portrayal of a great man who just happens to be a basketball lifer. It is about a coach from a much simpler time, whose wisdom is as contemporary as it is old. Get to know Pete Newell. He truly has had an amazing life.
