Unlike this kid, some of us would love to receive a good book this holiday season about Ohio State, The Rivalry, or the Big Ten Conference. Do any of you have suggestions for recommended reading for Ohio State fans?

Thanks!

War as They Knew It by Michael Rosenberg http://www.amazon.com/War-As-They-Knew-Schembechler/dp/0446580139

Def required reading. Use the Amazon link from the article the other day to get 11w some kick back ad revenue!

Thanks, BUCKSFANXC, and that is a great book.

For anyone looking to order, or buy anything else from Amazon from now until the end of time, if you use the Support Us via Amazon link in the "Resources" box on the right sidebar, we get a small cut of anything you buy.

This is important because we fully intend to hire a full-time beat writer for the 2012-13 football and basketball seasons.

I got the book which current sits on my night stand from winning an 11w contest a few years back, so it's the least I can do!

"1968" is by far and away the best OSU book that I've ever read. You will devour it in a couple of days. Don't bother yourself with "Game of My Life"; the copy I have is full of typos, and it's damn near unreadable at times.

"Buckeye" banned at St. Mary Catholic School in 1985, for it was the book that introduced hundreds of shocked/giggling Catholic school kids to the word, "f*ck."
