LITERARY CORNER
If perusing The Dash does not fill your recommended weekly football reading requirement, there are quality alternatives in the book world. The Dash is happy to recommend "Soldiers First: Duty, Honor, Country, and Football at West Point." The author is New York Times writer and F.O.D. Joe Drape (38). Drape normally provides some of the finest thoroughbred racing coverage on the planet, but he’s been known to moonlight as a fine football writer. His acclaimed book, "Our Boys," profiled a juggernaut small-town high school program in Kansas. In his current work on Army, Drape might have found the only group of football players more laudable than the Smith Center Redmen.
