Description  

An accurate and insightful journey into pro football's most dynamic organization as told by the author who as one reviewer stated, "In this joyful memoir about Davis and the Raiders, Ranahan was innocent, and this book reads like 'Huck Finn meets Al Davis.'"


Part memoir, part history, Al Davis to Win is a fascinating study of some of the most prominent people in the National Football League. This is an inside story from the perspective of a young worker who was privy to some of the most influential occurrences that molded the NFL into what it is today.

How the American Football League gained traction within a decade of its inception to merge with the long-established NFL is revealed though the actions of Al Davis, Lamar Hunt, Tex Schramm and Pete Rozelle. These four men are worthy of placement on an NFL equivalent of Mount Rushmore.

Al Davis to Win does not fictionalize the Raiders and their influence on professional sports, but rather offers accurate insights through the words and actions of some of the league's most renowned figures. In addition to a deep dive into the methods utilized by Davis, this book offers unique character studies of Howard Cosell, John Madden, Tom Flores, Jim Otto, Ken Stabler, Ron Wolf, Curt Gowdy and Johnny Unitas.
