Last Kings of the Old NFL: The 1969 Minnesota Vikings, Paperback

The story of the 1969 Minnesota Vikings brings to life the last year of the old NFL and the rival AFL. It is the last year before the merger of those leagues, before artificial turf became the rage and Monday Night Football became a cultural phenomenon. It's the story of a team's rise in two years from expansion and last place to the Super Bowl, the season that launched the Vikings among the NFL's elite and ushered in a new era of pro football.
