Sidelined
Before there was the newspaper article, there was the story behind the story.
Sidelined, a new book by Kevin C. Mills, an award-winning sports journalist, takes a look at journalism in a unique way. Reliving his own experiences with some of New England’s top newspapers, Mills presents strange but true episodes from his own career. He chronicles some of his favorite incidents with humor and wit while presenting the finished product, which barely hint at the story behind its publication.
Follow Mills as he chases hockey legend Wayne Gretzky down the hall of the FleetCenter or shows up at Mike Bordick’s doorstep. Relive the stop the presses moment that he missed when Mike Tyson was knocked out by Buster Douglass. Learn the back-story to some of Mills’ greatest stories and laugh along as Mills endures faulty stadium lights and gates that lock him inside the football stadium. Read about the story that accidently won an award or how he went from reporter to rescuer while on the sailing beat. See the job of a journalist in a brand new way and through the perspective of one of Maine’s top scribes.
Mills writes about his adventures and then provides the article that was subsequently published. From game stories to some of his best work, learn what truly happens when a journalist is on the sidelines and reporting on the world of sports.
