Razzle Dazzle: The Curious Marriage Of Television And Professional Football
Hardcover, 230 pages
Published January 1, 1984 by The Dial Press

From the publisher: Professional football on television each year occupies more American man-hours than have been expended to date on the entire space program…Indirectly — subtly but profoundly — television changed not only the way we viewed the game but the game itself. It turned it into a razzle-dazzle game: the theatricality of its presentation on the screen was echoed in its evolution on the field.
