<p>In the mid-1960s, George Plimpton talked his way into the Detroit Lions¿ pre-season training camp and in doing so set the bar for participatory sports journalism. With his characteristic wit, Plimpton recounts his experience of a month practising and living with the team ¿ getting to know the pressures and tensions rookies confront, the hijinks, taking behind the scenes snaps and capturing a host of American football rites and rituals. <br><br>Plimpton might not have made it as a quarterback, but fifty years after its first publication, <i>Paper Lion </i>remains one of the most insightful and entertaining classics of sports literature.</p>
