The Game Changer: How Hank Luisetti Revolutionized America's Great Indoor Game
By: Philip Pallette
'Pallette's book, which is illustrated with more than 30 pages of photos, does Luisetti justice. The scrupulous detail may be a bit much for casual fans, but Basketball aficionados will love it, as will those interested in the way things were all those years ago.' Dwight Chapin, San Francisco Chronicle
