What is The last cowboy : a life of Tom Landry about?
An eloquent, honest tribute to a sports genius. Publishers Weekly , Best 100 Books of 2013 As the coach during professional footballs most storied era, Tom Landry transformed the gridiron from a no-holds-barred battlefield to the highly-technical chess match it is today. With his trademark fedora and stoic facade, he was a man of faith and few words, for twenty-nine years guiding Americas Team from laughingstock to well-oiled machine, with an unprecedented twenty consecutive winning seasons and two Super Bowl titles. Now, more than a decade after Landrys death, acclaimed biographer Mark Ribowsky takes a fresh look at this misunderstood legend, telling us as much about our countrys obsession with football as about Landry himself, the likes of whom well never see again. 16 pages of illustrations
