Customer Reviews of The Conquering Heroes
Typical Peter Gent Very enjoyable. Typical Peter Gent book. If you like his others, you will like this one. Conspiracies everywhere. The protagonist is a tortured, well-meaning, but not perfect, baseball coach/scout. I hope that the recruiting scandals described are not even one quarter true, but who knows?
My only regret is that he hasn't written more novels
Exceptional book on college basketball
I read The Conquering Heroes by Peter Gent several years ago and was reminded of it when I recently read The Franchise by Gent. This book is a very interesting story of some of the behind the scenes of major college basketball. As in most of his books, the seedy underside is explored in great detail here from recruiting scandal to protection of a star player who committed a major crime. I enjoyed this book as much as I did North Dallas 40, although it didn't get near the accolades that 40 did. If you can find it used, it's worth your time.
