Produktinformationen "Sunday Heroes"
From the dusty prairie fields of early 20th-century Kansas to the LED-lit stadiums of 21st-century Mississippi, Sunday Heroes tells the true story of how high school football became the cultural backbone of small-town America. This deeply researched, narrative-driven chronicle follows a century-long arc of local legends, civic pride, and Friday night rituals that stitched entire communities together. With vivid detail and a strictly factual lens, the book traces football's evolution from grassroots spectacle to a shared national obsession, powered not by pro stadiums or college superpowers, but by marching bands, booster clubs, portable bleachers, and grit-stained uniforms. Each chapter unfolds another piece of a uniquely American story-where mill-town ironmen, church-backed fundraisers, pep rallies, and postwar heroes all played under the same lights, cheered on by neighbors, classmates, and generations of fans. This is not just a book about football. It is about identity, belonging, and the enduring heartbeat of towns where the scoreboard glows brighter than any skyline.
