The most authoritative book of its kind ever created, Total Football is crammed with stories, scores and stats from 77 years of NFL action. For the first time ever, fans can examine a complete Player Register, with personal and statistical data on every one of the more than 17,000 players who wore an NFL uniform from 1920 through the 1996 season.
All the greats come alive. Johnny Unitas... Jim Brown... Joe Namath... Brett Favre... in stories that explore the humor and heartbreak, the guts and the glory of professional football from a Pro Bowl team of writers. Packed with notes, quotes and anecdotes about coaching legends like Lambeau, Lombardi and Landry; strategy, histories of every NFL team (even the Tonawanda Cardex); the 25 greatest regular season games; and summaries of every NFL playoff game and Super Bowl, Total Football is an absolute must for football fans.

Total Football is the ultimate football reference, the most exhaustively complete tome of football knowledge available on the market, and the heaviest, too. Within its 1,652 pages are articles on football history, strategy, leagues, and the men who made the game. But the real meat and potatoes of the encyclopedia are its player register and team rosters, which include complete statistics on every individual who's played even a single game in the NFL. Rounded out with appendices that cover NFL rules, stadiums, and game scores from 1920 to 1996, this volume will flex the biceps and warm the heart of any true football fan.
