Mark Bowden The Best Game Ever: Giants vs. Colts, 1958, and the Birth of the Modern NFL

Mark Bowden, the bestselling author of Black Hawk Down, discusses his new book The Best Game Ever: Giants vs. Colts, 1958, and the Birth of the Modern NFL. Published to coincide with the 50th anniversary of the game, this remarkable story of the 1958 NFL Championship game between the Colts and the Giants-considered by many to be the greatest football game ever played-delivers a brilliant narrative on the game itself, the story behind the key players in that game, and the effect the contest had on the modern game of football and today’s NFL.
