I was looking for a book on Marino, and this appeared to be the best of what little is out there.It's mainly pictures, as other reviews noted. The book is just under 200 pages and probably no more than 25 pages of it are text. Most of that is from Marino directly and reads kind of like you had met him in a bar and he was giving you quick answers to questions about his life - Pretty much surface stuff that doesn't go into much detail. If like me you are looking for a full biography of him, this is not it.It's too bad. Marino had a very interesting career that a good writer could really dig into, even pretty much from the start with his odd last year in college and free fall in the 1983 draft - which ultimately was a blessing in disguise when he landed with a good Miami team. There was then the great year in 1984 followed by his only Super Bowl appearance (in which Miami lost to the 49ers), the near miss the following year in 1985, and then a strange drop off over the following years. His Achilles injury in 1993 was followed by a stirring comeback in 1994, although the team came up short of a championship again in 1994.The 1994 49ers had loaded up with free agents and won the Super Bowl. In 1995, with Marino and Shula both getting on in their careers, Miami tried the same method. The team got off to a good start but fell apart and played badly late in the year, leading the team owner to force Shula into retirement and bring in former Cowboy coach Jimmy Johnson. Johnson talked big about rebuilding the team and taking it to the Super Bowl. However, Johnson and Marino soon grew apart, the rebuild did not succeed, and both retired after the 1999 season without having won the elusive Super Bowl.Virtually none of this is covered in the book in any detail. (I don't think it even mentions Jimmy Johnson). Sports Illustrated, the back issues of which are available on its SI Vault site, covered the team pretty regularly in the Marino years, especially the drama with Shula, Marino and Johnson in the 1995 to 1999 years. It takes a little time to find the articles but they frankly read better than this book - The definitive book about Marino unfortunately remains to be written.I'd recommend this book primarily only for fans of the Dolphins who want a picture book - it does have a lot of good photo's of Marino. ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐ PHOTOS GALORE *by C***L on Reviewed in the United States on December 29, 2010* THIS BOOK IS NOT A VERY DETAILED LOOK AT MARINO'S CAREER. IT HAS VERY LITTLE STORY OR COMMENTARY. BUT IT HAS A TON OF GREAT PHOTOS OF DAN AND HIS FAMILY ALONG WITH HIS CAREER IN HIGH SCHOOL, COLLAGE AND NFL. IT ALSO HAS A VERY NICE DVD WITH HIGHLIGHTS OF HIS FANTASTIC CAREER. IF YOU ARE A FAN OF HIS OR A DOPLPHIN FAN THIS IS A VERY NICE KEEPSAKE. FOR THE NORMAL NFL FAN THIS IS AN OK BOOK. ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐ Where's the CD???? *by T***G on Reviewed in the United States on January 20, 2019* Got this for my sister for Christmas as she LOVED Marino. Would give it a 5 but the CD it advertises din't come with it.
