Stadium Stories: Washington Redskins (Stadium Stories Series)
by John Keim
 |
|
| Product Description: Washington is a transient and political town, often divided except when it comes to one thing: the Redskins. Even Republicans and Democrats are devoted to their cause. This book chronicles Washington's history, a combination of championships, futility and colorful characters. Even during the woeful 1960s, few teams were more interesting. The Redskins' success story starts with Slingin' Sammy Baugh in their early years. But no time was better than the 1980s with the Hogs, John Riggins, and Joe Gibbs. Throughout their history Washington has discovered hidden gems such as Larry Brown and Mark Moseley. The Redskins also fielded record setters from Charley Taylor to Darrell Green. And few teams have had such interesting owners as the Redskins: Their current one (Dan Snyder) is not nearly as controversial as their first one (George Preston Marshall), but none could match the showmanship of Jack Kent Cooke.
