Tar Heel Bred - Paperback
by Scott Whisnant (Author)
For millions who grew up in ACC territory humming "Sail With The Pilot" and distilling their self-worth down to a three-day tournament in Greensboro, Tar Heel Bred will serve as a warm, poignant and humorous recollection of what it meant to have life milestones marked by North Carolina basketball. Reformed sportswriter Scott Whisnant traces how his fandom guided him through theological crises, awkward puberty, family discord, racial awakening, dating and finally starting a family of his own. North Carolina fans will enjoy this rich history of Tar Heel basketball told from a personal perspective many of them will recognize and share.
