He takes us from Roberto Clemente clinching his 3,000th, and final, regular-season hit in Pittsburgh; to ringside for the Muhammad AliGeorge Foreman fight in Zaire; and to Arthur Ashe announcing, at a news conference, that hed tested positive for HIV. There are also little-known private moments: Joe Morgan whispering thank you to a virtually blind Jackie Robinson on the field at the 1972 World Series, or Kareem Abdul-Jabbar saying he was more interested in being a good man than in being the greatest basketball player.</p><p>Brimming with colorful vignettes and enlivened by Callahans eye for detail, <em>Gods at Play</em> offers surprising portraits of the most celebrated names in sports. Roger Rosenblatt calls Callahan the most complete sportswriter in America.
