About Cowboys Essential: Everything You Need To Know To

About the Author Frank Luksa is a longtime columnist for the Dallas Morning News and the author of numerous sports books. Product Description A one-stop record containing everything Cowboys fans want to know about their favorite football team, this resource is packed with anecdotes, history, explanations of traditions, statistics, trivia, and photos. From the Publisher "The Cowboys Essential approach is different from reviews devoted too often to dull play-by-play. All key games are here, from Super Bowl to Ice Bowl and Hail Mary, to be sure. But the emphasis is on what those involved said and thought. That’s what makes this book different. It’s about people. "It unfolds as personal anecdotes from players, coaches, and opponents that range from high humor to lowbrow drama. There’s as much fun as facts in these pages." —from the foreword by Roger Staubach From the Inside Flap Any football fan can tell you who America’s Team is. But how many know the origin of the Dallas Cowboys’ famous nickname? Or what the temperature was at the start of the famous Ice Bowl, how much Clint Murchison Jr. paid for the Cowboys in 1960, or which Cowboy was first to be inducted into the Pro Football Hall of Fame? If you know the answers to all of these questions, then you’re probably a die-hard Cowboys fan, and you will certainly enjoy the engaging stories and anecdotes featured in Cowboys Essential. If you stumbled over most or all of the questions, this book is your chance to learn about the rich and colorful history of the Dallas Cowboys—and to upgrade your status to that of a real fan. The Dallas Cowboys, consistently voted the most popular team in professional sports, have been blessed with more marvelous players and moments in their 45-year history than most pro teams with histories twice as long. Cowboys Essential delivers fascinating, useful, and informative nuggets of Cowboys’ history and lore in an easy, accessible format that allows you to browse at your convenience. From Too Tall Jones to Jerry Jones, this handy reference includes everything you ever wanted to know about America’s Team—and then some. The Super Bowls. The 0–11–1 maiden season. The Kicking Karavan. The CCC. The Ring of Honor. It’s all here. Tom Landry, Bob Lilly, Roger Staubach, Emmitt Smith, and Troy Aikman are here, too, along with the oddballs, flakes, and one-hit wonders. And there’s trivia, special top-10 lists, dozens of archival photos, and much more, all contained in this handy reference that tells the story of football’s flashiest franchise.
