Summary

"In 2003 I became the first African American head coach of the Indianapolis Colts-fifty years after George had become the Colt's first African American quarterback. Every African American in the NFL today owes a debt of gratitude to George, and I am thrilled that his story is now finally being told." Book jacket.
