Some of the most respected writers in Canada step up
to bat in Losers First An anthology of sports
literature, including Al Purdy, Rosemary
Sullivan, Robert Hilles and M.T. Kelly.
The editor is Black Moss's John B. Lee, a
respected poet who put Losers First out
as a sequel to a similar anthology called Signs of Perfection.
Losers First extends itself to more
eclectic activities besides the usual hockey and football. In here
are stories about soccer, golf, kickboxing, wrestling, fishing and
billiards from a variety of variously gruff, goofy and sentimental
voices.
