 reviewed Four Days to Glory: Wrestling with the Soul of the American Heartland on
Great in-depth view of the life of high school wrestling. Kreidler had unprecedented access to Iowa high school greats Dan LeClare and Jay Borschel during their 2005 season, as they attempt to win their fourth straight state wrestling titles. 'Four Day to Glory' reminded me of books such as 'Season on the Brink', and 'Friday Night Lights', however I feel it was superior to those titles due to Kreidler's amazing story telling abilities. He allows the reader to feel the highs and lows, and suffer right along with the wrestlers and their families and coaches.
