Follow on Google News | Newly Revealed Details Surrounding the Marshall Football TragedyThis is the book every sports fan, media junkie and biography lover must read.
By: Author Marketing Experts The tragedy that befell Marshall University on November 14, 1970 is well known and will be a forever fascinating part of college football history. But what’s been revealed up until now contains a number of missing links. Greenlee’s November Ever After fills that void; with the details only a seasoned journalist could dig up, and with the reverence only someone personally touched by the tragedy could deliver. A number of facts about the Marshall story have been curiously left out in other media portrayals. A few examples include: • Ed Carter, a former MU player who missed the fatal trip, started an evangelical ministry as a result of him not being on that plane. Ed’s global ministry is still going strong today. • Dickie Carter (no relation to Ed) was one of Marshall’s star running backs. DC, though, quit the team a few weeks before the crash. He’s been forgotten about; some might say that he’s been deliberately overlooked. For the first time, Dickie opens up and speaks his peace. • The plane crash more than likely averted what could have been a full-scale race riot on the MU campus. The above is just a sampling; Greenlee covers much, much more. With the anniversary just weeks away, credit must be given to the media that have done their part in keeping the spirit of the Marshall football tragedy alive, but those versions have been incomplete. Read November Ever After and get the raw, humbling story as told by those who were there. Greenlee will be hosting an event at the Winston-Salem Barnes & Noble on Saturday, November 12 from 4:00-6:00pm EST. All are encouraged to stop in.
