PublicAffairs Acquires Book From Albert Samaha

By Dianna Dilworth 

PublicAffairs has acquired a new book from longform BuzzFeed reporter Albert Samaha.

Never Ran, Never Will is “the story of a boys’ football team in Brooklyn’s poor Brownsville neighborhood,” that asks “challenging questions about the impact of economic progress on the underappreciated virtues that bloom from America’s inner cities.”

Ben Adams at PublicAffairs acquired the title at auction by David Patterson at Stuart Krichevsky Literary (North America).
