- Synopsis
- This book is a study of "King Football" from the 1920s through the 1950s, a period mostly marked by the enthusiasm of the editors of Sport Story and the Football News, but rarely without the censure of a Reed Harris or James Wechsler. The underlying question is a simple one: what did football mean to the actual millions who followed it, whether casually or passionately, during this period?
