Football Nation: Four Hundred Years of America's Game

This is the perfect gift for the football fan in your life. A clear engaging history of the sport that draws the reader in from the beginning. But even if your football fan is not a big reader, the fabulous collection of photos, posters and cartoons of everything football from its infancy to today (including cheerleaders and tailgate parties, of course!) are a feast for the eyes in this beautiful book. I have gifted 6 of them so far.

I ordered this for my 9 year old son, He loves looking at the pictures, we’ve read it together, and have enjoyed learning about the history of football.

I bought this as a gift after receiving it as a gift. Really nice work. Well researched, great visuals directly relating to the narrative.

This book is more beautiful than I even imagined. It is very thorough, extremely well written, and loaded with absolutely amazing photos. My three Christmas gift recipients will be thrilled. Thank you so much, Susan Reyburn, for putting this incredible collection together.

Seems like in a few years I'm going to have to repair it, doesn't feel like the binding is all that good also the cover material bowed. But the material is fascinating.

Completely enjoyed the book!! The pictures were engaging. I had no idea that women were so involved in the early years of American Football. A great gift for the football fan.

Gift your football fan(s) or yourself with fabulous pictures and text. Because it's the history of football the fan can always enjoy reading favorite sections again. What a wonderful keepsake.

This book put out by the Library of Congress is a wonderful compilation of the history of footfall and includes wonderful pictures. A great gift for any football fan.
