William Gildea's When the Colts Belonged to Baltimore is to football what Roger Kahn's The Boys of Summer was to baseball. It's one of the best reads in a long, long time and should be a best seller. -- Larry King
William Gildea is a sportswriter for the Washington Post. He and his wife, Mary Fran, parents of four, live in Bethesda, Maryland.
Mr. Gildea's book is at once an elegy and a eulogy... In this volume, every word is from the heart. New York Times When the Colts Belonged to Baltimore is more than just a sports compendium. It is a hymn, or perhaps an old fight song, for a city, a childhood, a whole simpler way of life that is gone from America as the Colts are gone from Baltimore.
