Who is the only coach the Dallas Cowboys ever had? Ok until 1988 anyway it was Tom Landry.
Coach of my favorite team, this book is a series of interviews with his players so it's a good
insight not only on Tom but of how the players felt about their lives in the NFL. Especially
in the early '60s when things were on a shoestring budget and bonuses were a few
thousand bucks.

Lilly, Jordon, Hayes, Drew Pearson, Randy White, Dorsett, Staubach are the players
interviewed along with a publicist. An appendix of results completes the picture.
