• Bought As A Gift, Recipient Was Pleased.
01 March, 2010
We bought this as a gift for a friend who wanted to learn more about football in general. She seemed pleased with it at the time but i haven't asked about it since. It seemed like a nice primer when I glanced through it before it was wrapped.

• Wonderful,simple Exposition Of A Sometimes Complicated Sport
11 July, 2000
I came upon this book as a complete novice to the game of football (Call me un-american as you will, but I've just always been an non-athletic type).Aside from a few games I went to with my family,I simply had no exposure to the game.The games became a confusing blur to me. I then fortunately came upon this book..This book started with the basics of football (the field,how it is played,it's history,the equipment, et cetera). After that, a wonderful review of both the defense and offense and all the actions they could take It then moved on to the positions and all the actions they could take ( This was of the most interest to me because this has always been the part I've had the most difficulty with). This, along with the section on plays, were essential to my growing knowledge of football. The last chapters on the essential players and coaches of football proved to be a great appendix to reference back too.All in all, a great guide to football for someone who has no knowledge of the sport.

• Excellent But Out-of-date
17 January, 2010
This is a little book that is packed with information that helps a beginner get oriented and understand the basics of the game. It's the best thing of that type that I've been able to find. I just wish the publisher or the author would update the book, which is a 2006 reprint of a 2002 edition.
