Assouline celebrates the rich history of American Football with a look at the 100 greatest plays.
College football has been around 150 years. The National Football League, 100. Assouline's Football: The Impossible Collection celebrates the 100 best plays from across all levels of this entertaining, often brutal, quintessentially American game. Selected by longtime sports journalist Michael MacCambridge, it covers everything from the very first college game in 1869 (Princeton v Rutgers) to the Ice Bowl, Immaculate Reception, and The Catch. 120 illustrations, including photos, memorabilia, and archival documents accompany the list. The book comes in a faux pigskin clamshell case, along with an Assouline canvas tote bag.
