About this title

Synopsis:

The definitive biography of one of the longest-serving, most highly accomplished, and well-respected owners in professional sports—Wellington Mara—this book details the life of the pioneer for the NFL who understood what it took to make the league great.

From the Publisher:

"Wellington Mara, in my opinion, was the most important man ever to be involved with the NFL.... [He] was like a father to every player. He was always on the sideline watching his team practice. He was there every time it took the field. Wellington Mara was always there, and that is why he will never be forgotten. If you played for the Giants, you were part of his family." —from the foreword by Sam Huff

"He built the team into what it is now, but the money never meant anything to him. He always drove the same Ford from the same Ford dealer. That was Wellington. A very simple man who had it all in perspective." —Frank Gifford
