"A brisk, sometimes revealing look at Lombardi's early days in Green Bay and is a nice complement to the existing works on the legendary coach." -- Publishers Weekly "The exciting chronicle of Vince Lombardi's pivotal first season as head coach of the Green Bay Packers... How the stout, brash Brooklyn native was able to transform a directionless assemblage of players into a gridiron behemoth is as much the subject of Eisenberg's exhaustively researched account as his thrilling description of each game... A must-read for Packer and Lombardi fans, and will interest most NFL fans as well." -- Kirkus Reviews "A worthy and informative account." -- Milwaukee Journal Sentinel "Incisive." -- Washington Times "Engrossing . . . Provides a thrilling look at the coach and players who legends shine brightly in Titletown even decades later." -- Associated Press "A breezy and likable look at [Lombardi]." -- Bloomberg "A compelling read about perhaps the most compelling coach ever to stride an NFL sideline. This one is a keeper for anyone who remembers St. Vincent or wonders how he did so much so quickly." -- Washington Times --
