Book Synopsis War Football by : Chris Serb
Book excerpt: War Football reveals for the first time how World War I gave birth to the NFL. It tells the story of the army, navy, and marine teams that saved American football during the war, and shows how war football alumni, including star George Halas, broke down barriers to professionalism and helped launch the NFL shortly after the war ended.
