Description

This vintage football publication is a detailed guide to the sport as it was played in 1917. Its primary author is the “Father of American Football,” Walter Camp, but other notable writers include Tom Thorp, Walter Eckersall, Glenn “Pop” Warner and Ed Thorp. Eckersall was a college hall of fame quarterback who won the 1905 championship before the introduction of the forward pass. He writes a fascinating guide to the quarterback position as it was played in his time. Tom Thorp was an influential player, coach and writer who provides insight to the line positions of the game. Glenn “Pop” Warner founded the popular youth football organization still in operation today. Ed Thorp was a rules expert and referee who was friends with several early team owners. The original championship trophy for the National Football League was known as the “Ed Thorp Memorial Trophy.” He writes an instructional guide to coaching a young prep school team. Walter Camp provides several chapters, including a beginners guide, an overview of football, forward pass instruction and how to practice for games. The combination of wisdom from these early influential figures in football is a can’t miss piece of the sport’s history.
