520    How many sportscasters working today can say that they've 
       interviewed both Babe Ruth and Derek Jeter? The answer is 
       one, and his name is Bob Wolff. Having called everything 
       from the World Series to the Westminster Kennel Club Show 
       on both TV and radio, Wolff is uniquely qualified to write
       a comprehensive guide to the art of sportscasting. And in 
       Bob Wolff's Complete Guide to Sportscasting, he pours 
       forth sixty-plus years of experience and wisdom behind the
       microphone to create the definitive volume on the subject,
       a book that will be devoured by aspiring sportscasters for
       generations. Part how-to, part memoir, it's a book that 
       breaks down the sportscasting profession from all angles 
       to present a step-by-step playbook for success. As Wolff 
       explains in his introduction, it doesn't take great talent
       to become a sportscaster. After all, it's the athletes who
       provide the stories. The sportscaster's job is to add 
       information and identification, sometimes entertainment, 
       and aim at enhancing the viewing or listening pleasure for
       our electronic friends at the other end. It's nice work if
       you can get it, and nobody has ever enjoyed this work more
       than Bob Wolff. Read this book to find out why and how you,
       too, can do the same.
