More than any other sports figure, Vince Lombardi transformed football into a metaphor of the American experience. The son of an Italian immigrant butcher, Lombardi toiled for twenty frustrating years as a high school coach and then as an assistant at Fordham, West Point, and the New York Giants before his big break came at age forty-six with the chance to coach a struggling team in snowbound Wisconsin. His leadership of the Green Bay Packers to five world championships in nine seasons is the most storied period in NFL history. Lombardi became a living legend, a symbol to many of leadership, discipline, perseverance, and teamwork, and to others of an obsession with winning.","brand":"Secondhand Stock","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":44013790724315,"sku":"9780684870182-SECONDHAND","price":10.0,"currency_code":"AUD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0523\/7646\/9701\/products\/9780684870182-us-300.jpg?v=1679115832","url":"https:\/\/bookgrocer.com\/products\/9780684870182-secondhand-when-pride-still-mattered-a-life-of-vince-lombardi","provider":"Book Grocer","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
