About This Item
New York, NY: Macmillan Publishing Company, Incorporated, 1974. Hard Cover. Fine/Near Fine. 2nd Printing. 8vo - over 7¾" - 9¾" tall. Very rare book. Big time college football- a bone shattering, gut wrenching inside account of what it's like to be Saturday's Children. This is College Football Texas Style. When Bill Peterson took over at Rice he told his team they could be winners. But he had doubts and so did they. Through the words and actions of player and coach alike, the author Giles Tippette spent the season working with the team, and provides an exciting play-by-play report on Rice's fiercely fought games, but also plumbs the human reactions to the stresses of the game. He delves beneath the obvious and into the violence, drama, and just plain sweat it takes to play on or coach a high-powered football team. 270 pages. Dust jacket rear top left corner has a 1/4" closed tear and is creased across the corner there too. Otherwise book looks great!.
