Synopsis: Pulitzer Prize-winner David Halberstams bestseller takes you inside the football genius of Bill Belichick for an insightful profile in leadership. Bill Belichicks thirty-one years in the NFL have been marked by amazing success--most recently with the New England Patriots. In this groundbreaking book, David Halberstam explores the nuances of both the game and the man behind it. He uncovers what makes Bill Belichick tick both on and off the field. Halberstam does for the three-time Super Bowl winner what Moneyball did for the Oakland As Billy Beane. -- Best Life If you want to learn about schooling and allegiance and leadership and, most of all, football, by all means--slip inside the sweatshirt. -- The Wall Street Journal Halberstam takes the classic sports-bio formula--one stellar performers rise to the pinnacle of American sport--and transforms it into a nuance-rich story of individual triumph and social history. -- Booklist In describing the triumph of an unadorned man, a coach without artifice, Halberstam has created a tale of excellence. -- The New York Times Book Review
