Pulitzer Prize-winning author H.G. "Buzz" Bissinger visited the Mansfield Public Library on April 26 and offered a lively discussion on life, the economy, the Olympics, and most of all, Friday Night Lights, the book he wrote that chronicles a season in the life of the Odessa Permian High School football team. He also brought along a friend, former Permian running back James "Boobie" Miles, whose story forms the emotional core of the book Sports Illustrated ranked as the fourth-greatest book ever written about sports.
