- Summary
- "The traumatic quest of a self-doubting, second-generation working-class youth growing up bipolar, Polish, and Catholic in the Buffalo, New York, region in the mid-20th century becomes the perceived journey of a perpetual underdog. Even the breakdowns morph into a brotherhood of underdogs--in Buffalo, the manic outburst of a comic of Jewish origins (Lenny Bruce), and in New Orleans, the punching frenzy of a black boxer (Muhammad Ali). The book's title traces back to shooting a game of pool out West with Native Americans, a primary underdog."--Page 4 of cover.
