Michael R. Steele. A tragic airplane crash in 1931 cut short the amazing life of Knute Kenneth Rockne, the famous football coach at the Univ. of Notre Dame. His 12 years as the Fighting Irish head coach left a legacy that, to this day, still rates as the national record for winning percentage among college coaches. Steele published his initial study of the impact of Rockne on American culture in 1983; this re-written edition is intended for the general audience. Delves into the intriguing facets of Rockne’s life & ends with original interviews with Irish players who survived him some 60 years later. Complete with 150 photos from the coach’s life & times, this fascinating book furnishes readers with a superb understanding of one of American sports’ most unique individuals.
