About this product

Product Information

The 1972 Miami Dolphins had something to prove. Losers in the previous Super Bowl, a ragtag bunch of overlooked, underappreciated, or just plain old players, they were led by Don Shula, a genius young coach obsessed with obliterating the reputation that he couldn't win the big game. And as the Dolphins headed into only their seventh season, all eyes were on Miami. For the last time, a city was hosting both national political conventions, and the backdrop to this season of redemption would be turbulent: the culture wars, the Nixon reelection campaign, the strange, unfolding saga of Watergate, and the war in Vietnam. Generational and cultural divides abounded on the team as well. There were long-haired, bell-bottomed party animals such as Jim "Mad Dog" Mandich, as well as the stylish Marv Fleming and Curtis Johnson, with his supernova afro, playing alongside conservative, straight-laced men like the quarterbacks: Bob Griese and the crew-cut savior, 38-year-old backup Earl Morrall. Larry Csonka and Jim Kiick, nicknamed "Butch and Sundance," had to make way for a third running back, the outspoken and flamboyant Mercury Morris. But unlike the fractious society around them, this racially and culturally diverse group found a way to meld seamlessly into a team. The perfect team. Marshall Jon Fisher's Seventeen and Oh is a compelling, fast-paced account of a season unlike any other.

Reviews
This is the perfect book for that perfect football season, filled with imperfect players--castoffs and has-beens--under a perfectionist coach against the background of a perfect historical storm of Jim Crow, Watergate, and the Vietnam War. A terrific read., "Maybe the best football book I've read. Certainly the most distinctive subject matter, the 1972 Miami Dolphins. ... Fisher has a smooth narrative style, both in describing 17 football games and providing backgrounds of the men who helped win all 17 of them. The Dolphins' story is also placed in context, both South Florida in the early Seventies, and the weight of Watergate and Vietnam growing across the country. I enjoyed every page."-- Frank Murtaugh, longtime managing editor, Memphis magazine; sportswriter for the Memphis Flyer.

The book is in perfect condition, brand new, and is exactly as described. This item is difficult to find here, and the seller priced it very reasonably. It shipped from the UK to Canada, and unfortunately took a little longer to arrive than the seller hoped, but it was shipped less than 24 hours after I purchased. When I contacted the seller, they were very responsive and helpful. I would not hesitate to purchase from this seller again. Definitely recommend!
