Reviews"I gain a deeper appreciation for all that is Alabama football every time I come back to the Capstone. Every chapter of this book embodies the Crimson Tide spirit and complements anyone's collection of Bama memorabilia."  -Jay Barker, 199194 teams, "Alabama football is a story of heroes, of a team you can never count out, because everyone who puts on a uniform for Alabama knows the tradition he represents, and that he is expected to be prepared to give his best, every time. Winston Groom knows that, and he tells the story so we can all relive the glories of yesterday-and of today." -Mal Moore, Director of Athletics, The University of Alabama, "I was as thrilled as any other fan of the Tide when we won the 2009 National Championship; it brought all the 1992 memories back.
