Book Synopsis Gipp at Notre Dame by : Emil Klosinski
Download or read book Gipp at Notre Dame written by Emil Klosinski and published by Publish America. This book was released on 2004-03-22 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Over the years since George Gipp's death at 25 in 1920, much of what has been written about the enigmatic young man has been based on sketchy research or downright fabrication. This book contradicts the latter with facts and first hand information about one of the greatest athletes of all time. While former president Ronald Reagan's name is synonymous with "The Gipper" because of his movie role as George Gipp, the story of the real "Gipper" is a fascinating one replete with not only gridiron heroics but intrigue, romance, humor, and pathos. This book includes exclusive accounts of everything from how Gipp really got the nickname "Gipper" to Notre Dame's rise to national football prominence under the Knute Rockne-coached teams led by Gipp. Other never-before-told historical surprises are in store within. Gipp, a great athlete, but also human, had frailties and virtues as we all do. This book is for everyone.
Book Synopsis Rockne of Notre Dame by : Ray Robinson
Download or read book Rockne of Notre Dame written by Ray Robinson and published by Oxford University Press. This book was released on 1999-09-23 with total page 305 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In a mere twelve years, Rockne's "Fighting Irish" won 105 games, including five astonishing undefeated seasons. But Rockne was more than the sum of his victories--he was an icon who, more than anyone, made football an American obsession. The book gives us colorful descriptions of such Rockne teams as the undefeated 1924 eleven led by the illustrious Four Horsemen, and the 1930 squad, Rockne's last and greatest. A renowned motivator whose "Win one for the Gipper" is the most famous locker-room speech ever, Rockne was also football's most brilliant innovator, a pioneer of the forward pass, a master of the psychological ploy, and an early advocate of conditioning. In this balanced account, Rockne emerges as an exemplary and complex figure: a fierce competitor who was generous in victory and defeat; an inspiring father figure to his players; and a man so revered nationwide that when he died in a plane crash in 1931, at the height of his career, he was mourned by the entire country. "A solid portrait of one of football's most solid figures."--The New York Times Book Review
