Tóm tắt

"C.C. "Cash and Carry" Pyle was a true American original. A dreamer and a schemer, Pyle made several fortunes by representing professional football and tennis players before quickly losing everything and disappearing into history's dustbin. This work reevaluates Pyle's fast life and times while analyzing his extraordinary and enduring legacy"--Provided by publisher.
