Undefeated: Jim Thorpe and the Carlisle Indian School Football Team by Steve Sheinkin

5.0

Absolutely amazing. Discusses the ups and downs of Thorpe’s amazing athletic prowess, the ridiculously hard struggles of Indians placed in Indian boarding schools and specifically the grueling football schedule they had plus the amazing game-altering ideas they came up with. Pop Werner is a jerk and this does not sugar coat it. Accurate and fascinating for athletic and unathletic readers alike!
