Football’s Greatest Coach: Vince Lombardi (1974)

Football’s Greatest Coach: Vince Lombardi was published four years after his death, and interestingly, it shows the coach on the cover in a Washington Redskins cap. While he finished his career with one year in the nation’s capitol (1969), he wouldn’t be remembered by the rest of the nation as being associated with anything else but his five-time world champion Green Bay Packers. As the back cover states: “From high school playing star to all-star coach, here’s his fantastic life story. Young fan or old, you’ll love every exciting word of it.”
