The Grantland Rice Story
Beginning at the Beginning
by
The Grantland Rice Story brings the world of sports to radio through the perspective of Grantland Rice, the celebrated sportswriter whose career spanned decades. The program draws on the people, contests, and moments that shaped American sports, presenting them as stories rather than simply as scores or results.
With its focus on sports history and personalities, the series offers a narrated look at the events and figures behind the headlines. “Beginning at the Beginning” suggests an introduction to the story’s subject, inviting listeners to start with the foundations of Rice’s account.
The appeal lies in hearing sports remembered as human drama: a record of ambition, competition, and changing times, told in the measured style of a radio feature.
This recording is part of the Old Time Radio collection.
