Hail Redskins: A Celebration of the Greatest Players, Teams, and Coaches Hardcover - 2001

by Richard Whittingham; Foreword by Bobby Mitchell


From the publisher

Football historian Richard Whittingham brings together vintage and contemporary photographs and a colorful blend of facts, features, and profiles to create a book no Washington 'skins football fan should be without. Whittingham traces the club's beginnings in Boston as the Braves, through its successful move to our nation's capital, from the almost slapstick inept teams of the 1950s to George Allen's Over-the-Hill-Gang that began a resurgence that carried the Redskins to three Super Bowls under legendary coach Joe Gibbs. With more than 100 archival photos this is a keeper for Redskin fans of all ages.

First line

The year was 1932. The United States was well into the Great Depression, Franklin Delano Roosevelt was out campaigning for the first time for the presidency of the United States, while in Germany, rabble-rousing Adolf Hitler was coming into power.
