local_shippingShip to Me
Overview
A member of the College Football Hall of Fame, Adam Walsh captained Notre Dame's Four Horsemen National Championship team in 1924. He etched his name into the annals of Irish football by playing 58 minutes with two broken hands against Army. Encouraged by famed coach Knute Rockne, Walsh began a 33-year coaching career. The first rookie coach to win a National Football Championship, Walsh walked away from the pressures of pro football to return to coaching the game he loved at a small college.
This first biography of the legendary Notre Dame coach covers his entire career as a player and as a coach, as well as his post-retirement activities. Hailed as a model citizen, Walsh would go on to serve his community in numerous civic capacities, from volunteer firefighter to minority leader of Maine's state legislature.
