Description
In Wealthy Westcott’s The Champions of Philadelphia, each and every of these teams earns a chapter devoted to its championship season. There are detailed descriptions of the games and players, plus noteworthy interviews. Starting with teams from the 1940s, Westcott has interviewed more than fifty players, managers, coaches, and others, including luminaries such as Mike Schmidt, Chuck Bednarik, and Bobby Clarke.
The City of Brotherly Love could also be a city that loves its champions. Westcott’s in-depth account of Philadelphia’s athletic triumphs will attract fans of each and every of the four active professional teams.
