Sports Illustrated: The Football Book

On the heels of the successful Sports Illustrated 50th Anniversary Book comes a spectacular celebration of professional football that will be treasured by fans of America's Game. With the same kind of unforgettable photographs and award-winning writing that made the SI's 50th Anniversary Book a best-seller, this lavish coffee-table volume brings to life the bone-rattling action of NFL football and the extraordinary athletes who have made it America's true national pastime. In 256 oversized pages, The Football Book commemorates the dynasties and the dominating players, the crucial plays and classic games, the personalities and performances that propelled the NFL during SI's first 50 years of publication, from a marginal, ragtag league to the biggest game in town.
