If you are looking for a book about a specific team or league, this is where you will find them. Books listed by league are predominantly about the league as a whole, rather than football in general or a team in particular.
For example, League of Denial is about football and concussion but it’s primarily about how the issue was handled by the NFL, so I’ve included it as an NFL book. Keith Dunnavant’s Montana is about a player who played almost entirely with the 49ers and therefore it’s listed as a 49ers book. Super Bowl Monday by Adam Lazarus is about Super Bowl XXV, between the Bills and the Giants, and therefore is listed under both teams. Finally, not all books on the site are listed here. For example, Tim Layden’s Blood, Sweat and Chalk is about football strategy in general and not about any league or team in particular, so you won’t find it here.
