High Strung by Stephen Tignor
For nearly a century, the lawns of tennis had been reserved for wealthy amateurs-gentlemen - but in 1968, the game was opened to professionals and was forever changed. The 1970s were boom years for tennis. This book chronicles the lives and careers of the men who made those Wild West days of tennis so memorable.
