Long before the 1972 Miami Dolphins, there was another team that finished as undefeated NFL champions: the Green Bay Packers of 1929. This team included some of the most fabled names in the history of professional football, including Mike Michalske, Robert "Cal" Hubbard, Johnny "Blood" McNally, and Earl "Curly" Lambeau, the most important figure in Packers history. Their stories are told here, as are those of their unheralded teammates, such as Verne Lewellen, LaVern "Lavvie" Dilweg, and Francis "Jug" Earp. Featuring play-by-play of all 13 official Packers games, this book takes a journey inside the Packers' 1929 season, from perhaps the best preseason signings ever all the way to the champions' banquet following the last of a three-game sweep of the Chicago Bears. Every player's biography, every game's story, and nearly all of the season's plays are recorded in this work, a comprehensive review of the Packers' first NFL championship season.
