Scott McCormick talks about real rivals who have existed in the world and some of them even exist today. These rivals wanted to prove the other wrong or tried to defeat the other in competition. During these fights or competitions, they brought into the world inventions or fashions which rocked in public.
The book contains four different rivals who brought into the world things which amazed the people of the time. Cope and Marsh are the first whose story gets an introduction in the voice of Prentice Onayemi, Samantha Turret, Gabriel Vaughan, and Josh Hurley. These two men never achieved anything in their lives but when their grudge made them dig in the soil real deep they found the fossils of a dinosaur. With the first discovery, the competition started and the two to beat the other in the count started digging holes and found a big number of dinosaurs. Hamilton and Burr brought new things into American politics and their rivalry educated the people of the land in many things.
The two to beat each other brought out the scandal which enlightened a big audience. The famous tussle between the two brands i.e Adidas and Puma brought out the best in the two as they constantly tried to improve the quality of their products. The Dragon Squisher and Rivals! Frenemies Who Changed the World will go well with this book. Scott talks in freestyle in all these three books and does not hesitate to bring the reality in front of the audience whether it is pinching. Truth is there in the books but coated with humor which makes it look easy to digest for everyone.
