Considered the "bible" of the tennis world, Bud Collins' Tennis Encyclopedia provides thorough statistics and presents a history of the sport, from its country club beginnings in 1876 to the billion-dollar industry it is today.

Arthur Worth "Bud" Collins Jr. (June 17, 1929 - March 4, 2016) was an American journalist and television sportscaster, best known for his tennis commentary. Collins graduated from Baldwin-Wallace College. After his U.S. Army service, Collins attended graduate school at Boston University. He drove the 700 miles from Lima to Boston with "The mission: convince Boston University to let him study journalism. The promise: if accepted, he would be an excellent student." However, Collins did not graduate from the College of Communications until 2009. From 1959 to 1963, Collins served as tennis coach at Brandeis University, where one of his players was future political activist Abbie Hoffman. At the time of Collins' death in 2016, the 1959 team was the only undefeated tennis team in Brandeis history. Although Collins described himself as a "hacker," he was an accomplished tennis player. He won the U.S. indoor mixed-doubles championship (with Janet Hopps) in 1961, and was a finalist in the French senior doubles (with Jack Crawford) in 1975. Collins began writing for the Boston Herald as a sportswriter while a student at Boston University. In 1963, he moved to The Boston Globe and began providing tennis commentary for Boston's Public Broadcasting Service outlet WGBH. From 1968 to 1972, he worked for CBS Sports during its coverage of the US Open tournament, moving to NBC Sports in 1972 in time for its Wimbledon coverage. He also teamed with Donald Dell to call tennis matches for PBS television from 1974 to 1977. Collins covered numerous sports, athletes and teams for The Boston Globe, including the Boston Red Sox during their "Impossible Dream" 1967 season. During Collins' years with The Boston Globe, he was a general and political columnist and also wrote for the paper's travel section. During the 2007 Wimbledon tournament, Collins announced that NBC had declined to renew his contract after 35 years with the network. He said that he did not plan to retire and would continue to cover tennis for The Boston Globe. Fellow Boston Globe sportswriter Bob Ryan ridiculed NBC's decision on ESPN's The Sports Reporters. Ryan said that the 78-year-old Collins "still has his fastball" and praised the Boston Globe for retaining Collins. Collins was hired by ESPN on August 7, 2007. He teamed with former NBC partner Dick Enberg on the network's Wimbledon, US Open, French Open and Australian Open coverage. He also covered the US Open for XM Satellite Radio. In 1999, Collins received the Red Smith Award, the nation's most prestigious sportswriting honor, awarded by Associated Press Sports Editors. Collins was inducted in the National Sportscasters and Sportswriters Association Hall of Fame in 2002. Collins is credited with popularizing the term 'Bagel', referring to a set in tennis that ends with a score of 6-0, after it was coined by Harold Solomon. Billie Jean King remarked: "Few people have had the historical significance, the lasting impact, and the unqualified love for tennis as Bud Collins. He was an outstanding journalist, an entertaining broadcaster, and as our historian he never let us forget or take for granted the rich history of our sport." Zander Hollander (March 24, 1923 - April 11, 2014) was an American sportswriter, journalist, editor and archivist. He served as a prolific supplier of encyclopedias on every major sport, editing, writing or packaging nearly 300 books over a professional career that spanned 45 years. In 1955 he founded Associated Features, a company which produced booklets that were distributed with assorted promotional products. During his time as a journalist, he started a lifelong friendship with a then young lawyer, Howard Cosell, who represented the Little League of New York and had been asked by the local radio station WABC to host a show featuring youth ballplayers. Hollander agreed to collaborate by writing scripts and recruiting sports celebrities for the show. They were not paid for their services, but it was the beginning of a successful sports broadcasting career for Cosell. Third Edition [stated]. First printing [stated]. Signed.…
