A sports journalist explores the inside story of the New England Patriots, an underdog team until 1994, when Robert Kraft acquired the franchise and turned it into a juggernaut by bringing on coach Bill Belichick and quarterback Tom Brady.
What The Reviewers Say
... a marvelously told story of the New England Patriots.
This definitive look at the controversial two-decade run of success of the New England Patriots is not an exposé of scandals; while the author covers Spygate and Deflategate, he does not find much evidence of negative behavior to overshadow the team's success .... A well-written look of the Patriot dynasty that should be in demand by football fans, though it would not preclude a more gridiron-focused take on how the dynasty was constructed and maintained..
Action-packed.
