Reviews
Mr. Gildea's book is at once an elegy and a eulogy... In this volume, every word is from the heart.
When the Colts Belonged to Baltimore is more than just a sports compendium. It is a hymn, or perhaps an old fight song, for a city, a childhood, a whole simpler way of life that is gone from America as the Colts are gone from Baltimore.
If you're looking for the sweetest, most nostalgic football book in a long time, check out When the Colts Belonged to Baltimore..
William Gildea's When the Colts Belonged to Baltimore is to football what Roger Kahn's The Boys of Summer was to baseball. It's one of the best reads in a long, long time and should be a best seller.
