520 $a"There has never been another sports franchise like the Dallas Cowboys. Since 1960, the team's triumphs and tough times have captivated football fans around the world. Over that span of years, dozens of books have been written in often brave but always failed attempts to tell the whole Cowboys story. Now comes the book that is must reading for longtime Cowboys faithful and new fans alike. DALLAS COWBOYS: THE AUTHORIZED PICTORIAL HISTORY is exactly what its title suggests. For the first time ever, a book has been written with the full cooperation of the Cowboys organization. As a result, there aren't any gaps. Everything's here, direct from the source. Coaches and players from throughout team history have contributed fresh insights into every aspect of the club's past as well as its future. Tex Schramm tells how he and Clint Murchison worked behind the scenes to convince NFL owners that they should place a franchise in Dallas. Schramm explains why he wanted Tom Landry as the Cowboys first head coach, and Landry tells why he decided, against his better judgment, to take the job. Roger Staubach and Drew Pearson combine to tell what really happened on both ends of the famous "Hail Mary" pass. Jerry Jones tells the complete story of his decision to replace Landry and the names of the three coaches he considered as Landry's successor. Want to know why Barry Switzer made that infamous fourth-and-a-foot call against the Eagles? It's here. The candid comments in this book will amaze readers, but history requires honesty. A season-by-season account of Cowboys' history is also included along with an in-depth section devoted exclusively to team statistics. Television sportscasters Pat Summerall and John Madden pick their all-time Cowboys team, with some surprising names included as well as omitted. Even one-time bitter foes such as Ray Nitschke and Rocky Bleier chip in with their Cowboys memories. Enhancing all of this are the finest Cowboy photos ever presented, including some from personal and team archives that haven't been enjoyed for decades. For Dallas Cowboy fans of any age and for enthusiasts who thought they knew everything there was to know. DALLAS COWBOYS: THE AUTHORIZED HISTORY is the ultimate sports history book that captures all the excitement and excellence of America's Team."--Jacket.
