Omschrijving
"Mary Papenfuss and Teri Thompson have done a fabulous job of unraveling the biggest corruption story in world sport. They've dug deep into documents they shouldn't have seen, talked with people who can't be named. American Huckster is a brilliant, gripping piece of work." -- Andrew Jennings, author of The Dirty Game: Uncovering the Scandal at FIFA "Chuck Blazer is a character straight out of Damon Runyon. He may have been able to extort millions from the Lords of Soccer, but in American Huckster Teri Thompson and Mary Papenfuss deliver the definitive take-down of a world-class fraud." -- Mike Lupica
