 A must-have reference for any sports writer November 6, 2001
4 out of 4 found this review helpful
Swan's book is a great reference for any sports writer or editor. Although there are a couple entries that do not agree with the AP stylebook, it generally rehashes and greatly expands upon the things the AP covers. Swan covers obscure sports, punctuation, number usage and spelling among other hard-to-judge areas of writing. If keeping the editor happy and free of hack-jack edits is the goal, this book is a great tool.
 At last! December 1, 1998

Since I became a sports editor some 15 years ago, I have been waiting for a reference book devoted to sports style rules. The Sports Style Guide fits the bill. It is a valuable resource at our newspaper, and I would suggest it to students hoping to work for a sports publication. I look forward to seeing the second edition.
Nice reference for sports copy desks October 3, 1998
3 out of 3 found this review helpful
After agonizing over several frequently used things that the sports section of The Associated Press' style book didn't cover, now we on the sports copy desk have a reference for double-checking things. A worthy addition to all sports desks, editors and writers alike.
