Reviews for Heroes Have Gone: Personal Essays on Sport, Popular Culture, and the American West
Whether writing about cereal box icons, rock-kicking, Mickey Mantle, or the fantasy realm of Las Vegas, Jim Corder is always engaging, always entertaining, always illuminating.... [T]he late Corder, a giant in composition and rhetoric studies, was a first-rate social commentator whose keen eye into the American soul is sorely missed. - David L. Vanderwerken, Texas Christian University
