Sophomore running back Clifton Dawson provided the Crimson with a matchless ground game, ultimately racking up multiple school records in the process. Kicker Matt Schindel stabilized a notoriously shoddy Crimson kicking game in just his first year on the team. Senior wide receiver Brian Edwards, on the heels of a breakout season the year before, made the Harvard special teams into his own private highlight reel—including four returns for touchdowns. Future NFL draftee and Ivy Player of the Year Fitzpatrick, with pro scouts watching his every move, kept his focus and provided the team with unquantifiable leadership...
Throughout the book, Proulx does a matchless job of summing up the human comedy of a modern West in which the cowboys are apt to pull up stakes to go to UCLA film school. She also likes to traverse whole decades in the space of a paragraph or two, as though to say that from the long mineral perspective of the Western soil and sky, sizable stretches of the 20th century might very well slide by in parentheses.

But Leveaux has ditched the old-fashioned scene changes and set the show on an open stage, with bare trees silhouetted against a translucent blue and orange...
...Harvey--a former umpire so esteemed by National League players that they called him "God"--said to Leavy, "I have as much respect for Sandy Koufax as for any man I've ever met in my life," he wasn't talking about Koufax's skill. It was not his matchless talent that exalted Koufax beyond his greatest contemporaries so much as it was his knowledge that character was not connected to talent. He never discredited his majestic accomplishments--"How could you do the things I did and not love it?" he asked Leavy in an unguarded moment--but he always...
