This well-worn copy of “Basketball: Building the Complete Program” by Norman E. Stewart is a testament to its enduring value as a coaching resource. Published in 1980, it captures the wisdom of Stewart, a pioneering figure in Canadian basketball who led the University of British Columbia to national prominence and coached the Canadian national team. Despite its age, the book’s comprehensive approach to building a successful program, from player development to game strategy, has stood the test of time. Its dog-eared pages and creased spine suggest it has been a well-thumbed companion for countless coaches seeking to elevate their teams. While the absence of a dust jacket and signs of wear may deter some collectors, true basketball enthusiasts will appreciate the opportunity to own a piece of coaching history that has influenced generations of players and coaches.
