Book about Murphy
Cisero Murphy's grandson has written a book about him: Big City Nights: The Biography of the Legendary Cisero Murphy [7]. This might be usable as a primary source for a few basics, though it wouldn't be usable for anything contentious. Someone from the website posted a blatant advertisement for the book in the article, and I reverted it and warned the editor (69.113.155.10 (talk · contribs · deleted contribs · logs · filter log · block user · block log), as of this writing), and provided links to the relevant policies. — SMcCandlish ☏ ¢ >ʌⱷ҅ᴥⱷʌ< 03:06, 15 October 2017 (UTC)
- Much appreciateed. I've ordered the book. The bookstore link at the site returns a 404 error. Here's another link and at Amazon. I never got to play with him (I asked him if he wanted to play a friendly game at Amsterdam Billiards (West) and he declined; he played alone every time I saw him; practiced straight pool), but I did watch him and what a master he was. Beautiful patterns.--Fuhghettaboutit (talk) 14:35, 15 October 2017 (UTC)
