Most of the credit goes to Moe Tucker, of course. Richard --- Fantastic. Of course, the horrible likelihood is that your subtitle still isn't quite long enough for the American publishing industry. I'll have to tell the World Soccer guy to work in a line about "Strategies for Business and Life." Emily — Thanks! Most of the credit goes to Moe Tucker, of course.

Can you imagine the book rights when Pro Vercelli win promotion to Serie B alone? It would be called something like "At the Foot of the Mountain: Brian Phillips, Pro Vercelli and the Untold Story of How an American Little League Coach Became one of the Greatest Football Managers of All Time."
