{"product_id":"namath-a-biography-9780143035350","title":"Namath: A Biography","description":"In between Babe Ruth and Michael Jordan there was Joe Namath, one of the few sports heroes to transcend the game he played. Novelist and former sports-columnist Mark Kriegel's bestselling biography of the iconic quarterback details his journey from steel-town pool halls to the upper reaches of American celebrity--and beyond. The first of his kind, Namath enabled a nation to see sports as show biz. For an entire generation he became a spectacle of booze and broads, a guy who made bachelorhood seem an almost sacred calling, but it was his audacious \"guarantee\" of victory in Super Bowl III that ensured his legend. This unforgettable portrait brings readers from the gridiron to the go-go nightclubs as Kriegel uncovers the truth behind Broadway Joe and why his legend has meant so much to so many.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Mark Kriegel\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Penguin Books\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 07\/26\/2005\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 544\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eBinding Type:\u003c\/b\u003e Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 1.09lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 8.54h x 6.62w x 1.15d\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN:\u003c\/b\u003e 9780143035350\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eReview Citation(s): \u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003ci\u003eIngram Advance\u003c\/i\u003e 08\/01\/2005 pg. 23\u003cbr\u003e\u003ci\u003eNew York Times\u003c\/i\u003e 08\/28\/2005 pg. 24\u003cbr\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eAbout the Author\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003eMark Kriegel is a former sports columnist for the \u003cb\u003eNew York Daily News\u003c\/b\u003e and author of the novel \u003cb\u003eBless Me, Father\u003c\/b\u003e.\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Penguin Books","offers":[{"title":"Paperback","offer_id":43144531443827,"sku":"9.78014E+12","price":25.95,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0555\/9255\/0515\/files\/img_0bf87d2c-a010-47c6-9955-90abd89552cc.jpg?v=1750504001","url":"https:\/\/bookstorenmore.com\/en-de\/products\/namath-a-biography-9780143035350","provider":"Bookstore N More","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
