520    "Like the age-old feud between the Montagues and Capulets 
       in Romeo and Juliet, the enduring rivalry between the 
       Boston Celtics and the LA Lakers makes for great drama. 
       Macbeth's career began with promise but ended in ruin--not
       unlike Pete Rose's. Twelfth Night's Viola's disguise as a 
       boy to enter into a man's world is echoed in Babe 
       Didrikson Zaharias' challenge to the pro golf patriarchy 
       when she competed in the Los Angeles Open. Exploring 
       parallels between Shakespeare's plays and famous events in
       the world of sports, this book introduces seven of the 
       best-known plays to the sports enthusiast and offers a 
       fresh perspective to Shakespeare devotees."--|cProvided by
