| Publisher Description: With a blend of portraits, words, and pictures, this book gives Packers fans their due. Green, Gold, and Proud is the ultimate tribute to legions of Packers fans in Wisconsin, across the United States, and around the world. Packed with hundreds of vivid, full-color photos that capture the true Cheesehead experience, Green, Gold, and Proud takes fans from the raucous excitement during a game to the green and gold living rooms and shrines across the country where readers meet a variety of fans, such as Sister Isaac Jogues Rousseau whose devotion to her convent and the Green Bay Packers has never wavered and Christopher Handler, a local painter who takes immense pride in having painted the Lombardi Avenue fence slogans for the past 21 years. Also included is a special DVD that is more than 80 minutes long and features a documentary that chronicles the storied past of Lambeau Field by sharing with fans the stadium's view of history: the games, players, coaches, and moments that have molded the Packers' championship past and path to future glory. |
