Bob Wolff's Complete Guide to Sportscasting by Bob Wolff

How many sportscasters working today can say that they’ve interviewed both Babe Ruth and Derek Jeter? The answer is one, and his name is Bob Wolff. Having called everything from the World Series to the Westminster Kennel Club Show on both TV and radio, Wolff is uniquely qualified to write a comprehensive guide to the art of sportscasting. He is perhaps the only man truly qualified to do so. And in Bob Wolff’s Complete Guide to Sportscasting, he pours forth seventy-plus years of experience behind the mic to create the definitive volume on the subject, a book that will be devoured by aspiring sportscasters for generations. Part how-to, part memoir, it’s a book that breaks down the sportscasting profession from all angles to present a step-by-step playbook for success.
Bob Wolff is the longest running broadcaster in television and radio history, now in his eighth decade behind the microphone. The only broadcaster in history to call the championships of all four major pro sports, his historic calls include Don Larsen's legendary perfect game in the 1956 World Series and the 1958 NFL Championship Game between the New York Giants and Baltimore Colts ("The Greatest Game Ever Played"). Wolff was the television and/or radio play-by- play voice of The New York Knicks and New York Rangers for twenty-seven years. In addition to his enshrinement in both the baseball and basketball Halls of Fame, he has also been honored with induction into Madison Square Garden's Walk of Fame and the National Sportscasters and Sportswriters Hall of Fame. He lives with his wife, Jane, in South Nyack New York.
