Gods at Play is an eyewitness account of great moments in American sports by author Tom Callahan.
The wonderfully observed story of American sports: character, grit, tragedy, heroism are unremarkable.

Gods at Play offers surprising portraits of the most famous names in sports. Roger Rosenblatt called Callahan “the most complete sports writer in America.
Tom Callahan has witnessed countless particularly striking moments in American sports over the course of four decades. He brings us from Roberto Clemente with his 3,000th and final hit, the regular season in Pittsburgh; ring the bell for the Muhammad Ali – George Foreman fight in Zaire; and Arthur Ashe announced, at a press conference, that he had tested positive for HIV. There are also little-known private moments: Joe Morgan whispered his thanks to the almost blind Jackie Robinson on the field at the 1972 World Series, or Kareem Abdul-Jabbar said he was interested in being a man. he better become the greatest basketball player player.
