Dandy Don Meredith: The First Dallas Cowboy by Dave Lieber (2024)

"New" biography of Don Meredith by Dave Lieber, published on July 3, 2024.
I bought the book as soon as I saw it announced and couldn't wait to read it. Frankly, I was disappointed. Lieber is not a sportswriter. He's the "Watchdog" columnist for the Dallas Morning News.
I'm not saying you must be a sportswriter to author a sports biography, but I think it helps. After reading Lieber's book, I couldn't help thinking that Meredith deserved much better.
I gave the book two stars on Amazon, and I thought I was being generous.
