Description
“Matthew Goodman has composed a portrait of an era that transcends sports. Painstakingly
reported and written with great affection, The City Game is a masterpiece of American
storytelling.―—Gilbert King, Pulitzer Prize–winning author of Devil in the Grove
 “Matthew Goodman tells this remarkable story—simultaneously stirring and
upsetting—with the skills it merits: deep reporting, insightful writing, and a sure-footed
comprehension of time and place.―—Daniel Okrent, author of The Guarded Gate
 “Exhaustively reported, lavishly detailed, expertly told, The City Game is the definitive
gripping account of the biggest scandal in the history of American sports. Smoke doesnâ€t rise
to the rafters of Madison Square Garden anymore, but this story of innocence, power, corruption,
greed, and exploitation in the world of college athletics is as relevant as ever.―—Stefan Fatsis,
author of Word Freak and A Few Seconds of Panic  “Fans of college hoops will devour
Goodmanâ€s excellent history. . . . Goodman effectively combines interviews and extensive
research to definitively recreate the unfortunate story of the 1949–50 City College of New York
basketball team, which won an unprecedented two college championships in the same year (the
NIT and the NCAA) before being tainted by a point-shaving scandal involving several of its stars.―
—Publishers Weekly (starred review)  “A richly detailed portrait of mid-twentieth-century
New York City . . . This is a marvelous, vibrant recounting of a bit of sports history in which the
backdrop of New York dominates.―—Booklist (starred review) Matthew Goodman
 is the author of three previous books of nonfiction: Eighty Days: Nellie Bly and Elizabeth
Bislandâ€s History-Making Race Around the World; The Sun and the Moon: The Remarkable
