the book

Football is a game of basic skills and overall strategy. This guide by the legendary coach of the University of Notre Dame imparts timeless advice on all aspects of the game of football. He developed his mastery early on, sneaking into football practice after his father forbade him to do so. This determination never ceased, and is part of this incredible sourcebook. Unavailable for decades, this source of wisdom and inspiration is perfect material for players, aficionados, and coaches at all levels of the game.

the author

Knute Rockne holds the record for the highest winning percentage (.881) in college football history. His status as a legend among football coaching icons cannot be challenged. His tenure at the University of Notre Dame resulted in a 105-12-5 record, including three national championships, before his untimely death in an airplane crash in 1931.
