With five Super Bowl titles, 13 Hall of Famers, a worldwide fan base, and a litany of legendary players and characters, the Dallas Cowboys franchise is cemented among the world's most successful and well-known sports brands. Legends of the Dallas Cowboys takes an in-depth look at some of the figures and entities that shaped the Cowboys' identity, beginning with Tom Landry, the man who was hired before original owner Clint Murchison had been awarded a team and who is still the franchise's enduring image. Also included is Tex Schramm, under whom the Cowboys had 20 straight winning seasons and who is considered the most forward-thinking NFL executive ever, as well as Randy White, Ed "Too Tall" Jones, Bob Lilly, Lee Roy Jordan, Mel Renfro, and innovators like Bob Hayes, who forced the creation of the zone defense, and Michael Irvin and Thomas "Hollywood" Henderson, who forced the creation of behavioral clauses in contracts. Each of the legends played his own unique role in shaping the lore of one of sports' greatest franchises. Now newly revised, the book includes a chapter on the venerable Texas Stadium and the team's transition to the palatial Cowboys Stadium. Skyhorse Publishing, as well as our Sports Publishing imprint, are proud to publish a broad range of books for readers interested in sports--books about baseball, pro football, college football, pro and college basketball, hockey, or soccer, we have a book about your sport or your team. Whether you are a New York Yankees fan or hail from Red Sox nation; whether you are a die-hard Green Bay Packers or Dallas Cowboys fan; whether you root for the Kentucky Wildcats, Louisville Cardinals, UCLA Bruins, or Kansas Jayhawks; whether you route for the Boston Bruins, Toronto Maple Leafs, Montreal Canadiens, or Los Angeles Kings; we have a book for you.
