booklover60 's review for:

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

4.0

---

In this book I learned about the early history of American football (before the NFL) and the role Native Americans played. It goes into detail about the obstacles Native Americans faced in the early 1900s and the mindset of white Americans. It chronicles the history of Jim Thorpe as he experienced the difficulties of that era and how he found success. I found this a very interesting read.
