Choice   "Sarah Fields' work on the history of sports and law dispels all doubt about the legitimacy of sports law as a field of study. Game Faces presents a convincing argument that cases about sports have made unique and important contributions to the law of privacy and free speech."
Erin Buzuvis, Western New England University "Sarah Fields combines her talents as a historian and a lawyer to guide us to and through the intersection of sport, celebrity, and the law. The precision and depth of this study is a gift to all interested in the rights of privacy and the control of one's public image."
Richard C. Crepeau, author of NFL Football: A History of America's New National Pastime "Game Faces is unique, effective, and impressive. I learned a great deal from it and appreciate how Fields addresses some complicated legal and ethical issues. Although most of us are not celebrities, many people in many disciplines will profit from considering the tension between the media and the freedom they are provided by the First Amendment and the personal autonomy of famous people to control (and profit from) their names, images, and likenesses. In part because we live in a celebrity obsessed culture, many readers should find Game Faces enlightening."
Daniel A. Nathan, author of Saying It's So: A Cultural History of the Black Sox Scandal "Game Faces marks an important contribution to the field that is sure to shape and generate further discussion of the links between sport, law, identity, and power."
Journal of Sport History "This is an excellent book that clearly exhibits the painstaking research that went into this thought-provoking subject."
