1st Edition / 1st Printing - Dey St. (2016). VERY GOOD in a very good dust jacket. No marks in text. Small remainder mark on top edge. Binding is tight and square. Gently read if at all. xiii, 251 pages ; 24 cm. . . . . . . FROM THE DUST JACKET FLAP: The NFL in the 1970s was a ruthless is league, rife with concussions, broken bones, unmatched egos, and frequent racial strife. In the midst of this madness, commanding the Oakland Raiders (perhaps the baddest team of them all) was quarterback Ken Stabler aka - Snake - an unassuming and lethal threat as a player. On the field, he was cool and confident, but off of it he was a legendary woman chaser and babe magnet, carrying a larger-than-life persona at odds with the performance-drenched focus that characterized the rest of the NFL. Yet the Stabler that would eventually emerge was more than a playboy. No quarterback was tougher or more uniquely talented; his accuracy, particularly with deep throws, was as good as any quarterback's the league had ever seen; he'd won 100 games faster than any quarterback in history, as well as a Super Bowl, and most of all, he helped redefine the Raiders from losers to champions.
