The Cowboys and the NFL book due September 8
A new University of Oklahoma Press title chronicles the Dallas Cowboys and the NFL from on field play to off field business. Authors Donald Chipman Randolph Campbell and Robert Calvert place the team in historical context with growth, leadership, and MLB style planning. The authors note the Cowboys rose from 1960 beginnings to a top expansion club and project a strong 1970 season under Tex Schramm Tom Landry and Gil Brandt. They provide analysis of the 1960s league issues including the NFL Players Association strike and its impact on camps. The authors are North Texas State University faculty and see continued Cowboys success on and off the field.
