The history of UCLA football is a continuous story of highs and lows,
ups and downs. Every year from 1919 to today, UCLA has fielded a team,
and though the expectations have changed through the years, the goals
have not. The single greatest goal in sports is to win your next game.
When a team strings enough wins together, a magical season is born.
In the UCLA Football Encyclopedia, Stueve doesn't miss a beat in his
coverage of all the magical seasons, as well as the not-so-magical
seasons, from the inaugural one through 2017. He covers the UCLA
coaches, as well as the players who have left a lasting legacy. Along
the way, he captures all the details about the wins, the losses, the
individual and team records, the assistant coaches, and the players that
built the foundation of the program.
The story of UCLA football is often a story of almost, and in this book,
readers will relive the times UCLA simply refused to settle for almost.
These tales feature legends Fred Cozens, Red Sanders, Tommy Prothro, Jim
Mora, and countless other Bruins stars, past and present. Stueve also
recounts the upbringing of Donn Moomaw and that of Maurice Jones-Drew.
Complete with dozens of historical photographs, this is the most
extensive book ever written on UCLA football and a must-read for every
UCLA football fan nationwide.
