A very bizarre book that took me on a wild ride.

Because even then, especially then, we could see well enough there was no future." See’s depiction of the post-apocalyptic world and the way her characters react to it seem really plausible to me; I believed in this destroyed L.A. more than I believed in the pre-destruction “real” one. I’m not sure what this says about the book or about me.

This concept alone made this book worth reading and loving. A really nice read about Jerry West, the connective person between the 33-win in a row Lakers of the early 70s and the current Warriors. In this case, he stitched together a connection between the 1971-72 Lakers, who put together what is a still a US pro sports (NBA, NFL, MLB, NHL) record of 33-straight wins, and the present day Golden State Warriors (2014-15 thru present) through the bridge of Jerry West.

Golden Days gets at the essence of the man as a player and an executive, while also exploring today’s game through the Golden State Warriors.”—Pat Riley, president, Miami Heat “An original, fascinating, and breezy read.”—Zach Lowe, senior writer, ESPN. I'll probably forget everything about this book within a year, but it was an interesting read. Is it us or them that caused this change? See is much more grounded in her writing, but does take flights of fancy within reality. Just a moment while we sign you in to your Goodreads account.

I was stunned when I received the paperback and found it autographed. As an NBA fan, I'm familiar with McCallum's work and have read his books on the 1992 Dream Team and the 7 Seconds or Less Phoenix Suns teams. The LA Lakers from 1971/72 and the modern-day Golden State Warriors share a California setting, the thrill of combing great players in one team, scarcely believable winning streaks and one very important man – Jerry ‘the Logo’ West. Golden Days is the story of two basketball teams from very different eras but with a huge amount in common. He writes a good basketball book.

by University of California Press. And of course, the Celtics of the 1960s and the Minneapolis (!!) The ending was hopeful though. by Ballantine Books. I think I found it annoying for about the first 10 pages, then fell for it, hard. This marvelously imaginative, hilarious, and original work offers fresh insights into the way we were, the way we are, and the way we

Doomsday approaches.

The book takes a deep dive into a significant year of their surfing lives. (Audiobook) This book attempts to link the saga of two NBA franchises separated by nearly 40 years (the early 1970s LA Lakers and the mid-2010s Golden State Warriors). What I learned: don't bother with New Age philosophy, brush up on Stone Age philosophy. Are You Ready for Some Football...Fiction. Golden Days is one of the most luminous books I have ever read. It is appropriate that I finish Jack McCallum’s latest book in the midst of what will almost surely be the Golden State Warriors's third NBA championship in a four-year span. Two stories: the Lakers during West's career, and the Warriors with Steph Curry.

Linking the recent past with an imagined future, Carolyn See captures life in Los Angeles in the 70s and 80s. It's set in Los Angeles (Topanga Canyon) and takes us into the life of a divorcee with a knack for the jewelry trade who is trying to make ends meet servicing clients in Beverly Hills. Her eyes were wide. This book touched me in such a deep way. I wish more important LA women writers were given their due. Grommet years when the days never ended. She begins by carving out a niche business appraising jewelry for wives of wealthy men - and sometimes breaking the news when their husbands have gifted them zircons instead of diamonds.
