Coaches

This classic book on coaching has been used as a reference guide for generations of coaches in football, baseball, soccer, gymnastics and swimming. Sports journalist Bill Libby collected wisdom from over 50 different coaches including Vince Lombardi, Bill Russell, Lefty Phillips, Billy Martin, Casey Stengel, Tom Landry, Woody Hayes, Leo Durocher, Bear Bryant, and Red Auerbach. While there are plenty of books that serve as technical manuals to the profession, The Coaches covers the reasons, tricks, motivations and passion behind this most unusual pursuit. Its why some of the most famous names in contemporary coaching keep coming back to this quintessential work of sports journalism.
