Reviews
"As a passionate football historian, who played for the Pittsburgh Steelers and served as an ESPN NFL analyst, I am excited by the revelations in Gridiron Legacy. The previously untold story and unpublished images are important additions to the history of our sport. Gregg Ficery's inspiration to unearth the pro game's roots in Pittsburgh and Ohio through his family history adds a special dimension."--Merrill Hoge, Pittsburgh Steelers, 1987-1993; ESPN football analyst, 1995-2017 "Gridiron Legacy is pro football's Book of Genesis. The story helped me understand the roots of the passion for pro football in Pittsburgh that I experienced in my career with the Steelers. If you're as big of a football fan as I am, it's a must-read."--Jerome Bettis, Pittsburgh Steelers, 1996-2005; Super Bowl XL champion; Pro Football Hall of Fame "Gridiron Legacy tells the story of the very beginnings of professional football at an unprecedented level. Seeing the impact that the pro Massillon Tigers had on professional football is enlightening and inspiring. Another generation from now, these stories may have been lost. Now I can continue to share the story with my players to help them better appreciate our tradition. Thank you for preserving the history and telling the story of the birth of this great game."--Nate Moore, head football coach, Massillon Tigers "This amazing book is a fresh new contribution to American football history. Gregg Ficery deftly weaves a story of professional football's peculiar Pennsylvania roots and its evolution in Ohio and beyond. It is at once a personal story of the search for a forgotten footballer on his own Pittsburgh family tree, but the author's detective work quickly reveals a much bigger story that sorts out professional football's origin myths and legends. The book is packed with rarely seen photos that will astound sports historians and draw readers into some wonderful storytelling."--Andrew E.

Synopsis
Professional football's backstory was lost, until now. In the beginning, in 1892, pro football was born. Then it effectively died in infamy in 1906.
