Jim Coleman saw Lou Gehrig and Babe Ruth slam homers in training camp and was there when Jack Dempsey KO'd Jack Sharkey and interviewed young Jackie Robinson. He won his greatest fame through the horse racing's shedrow with Johnny Needle-Nose, the Blow-Back Kid, Knifey, the Good Kid, and Sir Benjamin Stockley. Coleman earned the honor of Canada's first nationally syndicated sports columnist, membership in five Canadian Sports Halls of Fame, and the Order of Canada. THE BEST OF JIM COLEMAN is a fall-down funny, lump-in-the-throat history from the man who witnessed great moments and characters of sports.
