Came across Nitrateville looking for some information on John Lardner (b. 1912) who was a sports writer from the early 20th century.
I like to scope out great sports writers.
Heaven knows there's a dearth of great writing.
Wouldn't surprise me one bit if the best sports pieces come from people outside the realm of sports.
Before I go digressing I'll stop here.
Unfortunately I was unable to locate actual articles from Lardner.
The only one I have is in the copy of 'The Best American Sports Writing of the Century,' David Halberstam, ed. titled "The Haig: Rowdy Rebel of the Faiways" published one year before of his death of a heart attack in 1960.
