"An absolute masterpiece... compelling and riveting... Hands down, the best sports book of the year." -Paul Finebaum, sportswriter and radio talk-show host No one can touch Bart Starr's record setting five NFL Championships including three straight. Bart Starr: America's Quarterback and the Rise of the National Football League tells the story of the man who helped create the legend of Vince Lombardi and the Green Bay Packers. Set against the changing landscape of the last half of the twentieth century, this biography traces Starr's life from childhood in Alabama to stardom in Green Bay and beyond. Not a simple sports story, Keith Dunnavant traces the story of one man reaching for the American dream while professional football emerged from the shadows to capture the nation's imagination. It's a story of the tension between a coach and a player as different as fire and ice, and how they came to trust and revere each other. It's a story of triumph tempered by tragedy, and the world-class athlete who quietly, persistently, achieved a level of greatness unsurpassed by any quarterback since. A remarkable blend of personal memory and historical narrative, Bart Starr: America's Quarterback and the Rise of the National Football League is a tribute to an American hero and the perfect companion to the classic When Pride Still Mattered. "A definitive biography of the best man ever to take a snap from center." -Allen Barra, The Dallas Morning News "This is one of the best sports history books you will read. It's the story of a remarkable man and a fascinating time." -Roger Goodell, NFL Commissioner
