NFL Football

"Creapeau's book examines the NFL as a business and a cultural phenomenon. It succeeds on both accounts. Anyone looking for a short overview of the NFL's meteoric rise to America's national pastime should begin with Crepeau's book." --Journal of Sport History

"The updates to this new edition of NFL Football have made Richard C. Crepeau's already crucial book even more vital to those of us interested in the history of America’s most popular and problematic sports organization." --Travis Vogan, author of ESPN: The Making of a Sports Media Empire
 

Praise for the previous edition of NFL Football:
“[Crepeau] has brought together from a great many sources the information necessary to anyone who wants to understand the origins and the workings of the powerful and profitable entertainment vehicle the NFL has become.”
--Bill Littlefield, NPR’s Only a Game
