Re: Celtic books

[Josh Ozersky <josh_ozersky@yahoo.com>]

I read "The Last Banner" by Peter May and it sucks
even for a book by Peter May.  They should credit
Walton as being the coauthor, since it seems to be
largely based on interviews with him.  The best books
on the 80s celtics are 48 minutes, by Bob Ryan, and
Unfinished Business, by Jack McCallum -- in reverse
order.  The McCallum book is one of the great unread
books in the Celtics canon.  It's out of print, I
think, like Second Wind.  Has anyone read "The Big
Three?"
