Bob Barry, Oklahoma’s sports announcer

I just realized we didn’t have a copy of Voice of Bedlam , the new sports book about  Bob Barry and will soon fix that oversight, and you should do the same. Who doesn’t know Bob Barry? If you’ve lived in Oklahoma for more than one sports season then you must have heard of him. The book is written by Oklahoma native, Bob Burke, another well known name in Oklahoma for his many, many books about Oklahoma people and places. To get a feel for just how prolific Bob is Voice of Bedlam is his 101st book .  Michael Dean is co-author of the book.  Published by the Oklahoma Heritage Association.

This book highlights Bob Barry’s life and work as a television and broadcasting icon for Oklahoma’s sports community.  It also gives a history of football and basketball at Oklahoma’s two largest universities, OU and OSU.

I know the three have been appearing at various bookstores throughout the state, but here’s one more that you can catch….
