Twenty-five years after it spent sixteen weeks at #1 on the brand new York Times bestseller list, John Feinstein’s A Season within the Brink remains the classic from the genre and an memorable chronicle of his year spent following Indiana Hoosiers and their fiery coach Bob Knight. This anniversary edition features an up to date package and a fresh Intro by Feinstein.

Twenty-five years after it spent sixteen weeks atop the brand new York Moments bestseller list, A Season over the Brink remains probably the most celebrated basketball book ever written. Granted unprecedented access to famous coach Bob Knight and the Indiana Hoosiers during the 1985-86 season, John Feinstein noticed and heard it all-practices, group meetings, strategy periods, and midgame huddles-as the team worked to return to championship type. The result is an memorable chronicle that not merely captures the crisis and pressure of big-time university basketball but also paints a vivid portrait of the complex, brilliant coach as he walks the fine range between genius and madness.
