Ji FU reviewed Lamar Hunt by Michael MacCambridge
A fascinating book about a fascinating man
5 stars
I didn't know that much about Lamar Hunt prior to reading this biography. I knew him primarily as the guy the Lamar Hunt U.S. Open Cup soccer tournament and trophy is named after. I knew they had re-named the Open Cup after him due to his work to bring soccer to main stream USA, but I didn't realize just what impact he had on American Spector sports that take up so much entertainment time/value of so many people.
Turns out Hunt was the of an oil Barron who could have done most anything he wanted to. Most of what he wanted to do was play American football.
