Chris Willis has done it again! The master historian has once again dove deep into the annals of a legend and produced an accurate depiction of this time one of the largest legends of the gridiron. Bronko: The Legendary Story of the NFL's Greatest Two-Way Fullback is the latest creation from the desk of Mr. Willis.
His subject of Bronko is wonderfully portrayed from his youthful years right through th latter part of his life with everything in between. Nagurski's time on the playing field is well told here too not only from his time with the Chicago Bears but also earlier at the University of Minnesota and in high schol as well.
Join us in the podcast above to hear all about it right from Chris.
