Editorial Reviews

From its shaky beginnings as an charter A.F.L. club to the proud days of Warren Moon and Andre Rison, this exhaustive encyclopedia covers it all; every season, every player, every touchdown. Forty years of first-rate football history. Cheaper than a season ticket; almost as much fun.
