| Publisher Description: his book is written for those of us who love New York Giants Football. Those who are not the top fans of the Giants will also want this book, so they can try to get a leg up on the facts missing from the bookshelves of those Giants' fans who do not have this book.The book first tells the story about the founding of the Giants as a new team in 1925. The late Tim Mara, who now is a member of the Pro Football Hall of Fame acquired the Giants for a song. Mara needed a few more bucks to get through that first season before the Giants had become a head-smashing success. Mara had to fork over (invest) another $25,000 (50X the initial investment just to keep the franchise alive this first year. Because Mara kept the Giants alive, a team in NY City was assured and the team's success in its first three years in the NFL gave the NFL a must-have stronghold in the nation's largest city. The Giants are still a valuable property in the Mara family, with grandson John holding the reins today. .It seems like yesterday but for those pros trying to create a league out of nothing, there would have been nothing without their work. And of course, this great book about the Giants, eventually takes a deep look at the great and soon-to-be-immortal-Giants' coaches including #1 Bill Parcells, #2 Tom Coughlin, #3 Steve Owen, and #4 Allie Sherman, all the way to the current immortal with lots of years left, Pat Shurmur.This book captures the great Coaches in Giants Football. It takes the reader through stories about the Giants 20 coaches to great stories about the 94 seasons worth of great games with a preponderance of great Championship and Super Bowl wins. I dare you to pick up this book for, if you are a Giants fan, you will never put it down again. You cannot ever get enough of Giants' greatness, but we do provide as many stories together in one spot as we can in this can't miss book. |
