Created by Joe Garner, author of the eponymous New York Times Best-Selling Book, this 12-episode audio docuseries launching July 20, 2021, celebrates the crucial role broadcast journalism has played throughout our nation’s history.

Let's Talk

I bought this book for my husband, a NASCAR fan, as a Christmas gift and he loves it! I often find my sons looking at it also.
Once you've been baptized in sweat and gasoline and the thunder of forty 800- horsepower engines, you're a fan for life. If you are, Speed, Guts & Glory is the book for you.
It must be said that 100 Yards of Glory: The Greatest Moments in NFL History will make a swell present. Aesthetically welcoming…It's like those great NFL Films documentaries, with the dynamism of the video and voice-overs exchanged for the dignified distance of the page. One imagines a young N.F.L. fan grabbing this book from the coffee table, lying stomach-down on the carpet and immersing himself in the mythology.
To get a true taste of this book, just peruse its table of contents and flip through its pages. This coffee table hardcover (and there's a ten-part Bob Costas-hosted DVD documentary too!) features the most arresting highpoints of NFL history: the dynasties, the championship games, the Super Bowls, fantastic finishes, improbable catches, amazing runs, defensive greats, topflight quarterbacks, and coaching greats.
A coffee table slice of pigskin heaven for the fans of the National Football League. The best of the Super Bowls, runs, catches, quarterbacks, coaches. etc. forms the subject matter of this worthy piece. Archival images adorn these pages and add to the total package.
People are going to be able to read about me like they’ve never read about me before. I think Joe Garner did an excellent job of pulling that out of me, although it was hard at times.
I have just finished reading Jeff Gordon’s new book “Jeff Gordon: His Dream, Drive & Destiny,” by Joe Garner and I recommend it highly. It would make a great Christmas gift for any race fan in your family!
