"""By high school, the pressure mounted along with the stakes. The Jaguars knew they were expected to beat the lower-ranked teams.

When you're No. 1, that means everybody...""

Under the watchful eye of pro scouts and the weight of massive expectations, seventeen young men rank No. 1 in the country. In the tradition of Buzz Bissinger's classic Friday Night Lights, Blades of Glory follows these talented athletes, their coaches, their parents and their fans, offering a captivating glimpse into an elite program and the triumphs and tragedies of real life."

Reviews for Blades of Glory: The True Story of a Young Team Bred to Win

'it remains an interesting question how the theist - whose religious participation stems primarily from her belief that God really does exist - will want to take Broom's important biological insights and incorporate them into her own account of how god might have provided humans with a sense of morality.'
