Not WAC related but sure to be a good read

Bill Simmons has written a history book. Yes, the subject may sound like a snoozer to many but it's replete with basketball stories, anecdotes and background unknown to most. Get it and learn about IT, Kareem, the Mountain Man, the ABA and more.

Go here to read the initial excerpt, with links to more.

We're pushing it because it's a great read -- at least the parts we have seen so far. No, we have not received a gratis copy -- which surely is just an oversight on the part of Simmons' publicist. ;-)
