From the arrival of the godfather of Missouri Football, Don Faurot, to the fantastic victory over the Cornhuskers last year, Mizzourah! covers nearly 70 years of Missouri Football history. It is filled with amazing never-before-seen photographs and frame sequences taken from actual game films along with terrific writing which transports you back to those moments that are Missouri Football. Mizzourah! allows younger fans and alums like myself to better understand the great history of the Missouri Football program. I gained a much deeper appreciation of how this program rose to national prominence and the people and personalities behind that ascension. The photos and game film in the book really make the text come alive and allows one to easily picture moments such as when Paul Christman lead the Tigers to victory over the 17th ranked Violets of New York University, when Missouri achieved its first ever No. 1 ranking following a victory over Oklahoma, and when the Tigers handed Bear Bryant one of his worst defeats in the Gator Bowl. Seasoned fans and alums will enjoy looking back on and reliving some of the great moments of Mizzou Football that they witnessed in person. Filled with unknown details and side stories, Mizzourah! allows you to come to know and appreciate the greatest moments on an even deeper level than many fans already have. I know I was filled with all the emotion and thrills of the time when reading about those few memorable moments I have been fortunate enough to attend myself. I suspect that those who followed the Tigers and attended the games during the golden age of Mizzou Football will also have those feelings as they read about and remember the really great times. The book itself is a handsome 8.5Óx11Ó hardcover edition that would look great sitting on the coffee table of every Mizzou fan. The photos are vibrant and the text is very easy to read. This is a book that you will return to time and time again. So,
I urge you to pick up a copy of this book and relive the most
memorable moments in Missouri Football History. In fact, why not
pick up a few copies of this awesome book? They make wonderful
gifts for any Mizzou fan on your holiday list! "Mizzourah!
is the perfect Christmas gift for Tiger fans this holiday season. "Mizzourah!
is a must have book for Tiger Fans!" "Amazing
collection of pictures." "A
one-of-a-kind book for Tiger fans." On September 27 Todd Donoho visited the syndicated "Mark and Brian Show" based in Los Angeles. Previously Todd did sports for Mark and Brian. The hosts were amazed when in the course of the interview a listener from Los Angeles called up and ordered the book. Mizzourah! reaches well past the Missouri state line!!! |
