The Best Game Ever

Mark Bowden, bestselling author of BLACK HAWK DOWN, vividly brings to life the glorious 1958 National Football League championship game between the Baltimore Colts and New York Giants. The game received the largest television rating for a football game, and was pivotal in the massive growth of the sport`s popularity. Bowden writes about the historical context of the game, and also brings to life the many larger-than-life players taking the field (including 17 future Hall of Famers), in particular the legendary Johnny Unitas.
