SHERMAN J. HOWARD: Football and Beyond - The Legend and Legacy of an African-American NFL Pioneer

In 1952 Jet Magazine described Sherman Howard's performance in a game between the Cleveland Browns and the Washington Redskins as "sensational." In his own words the author highlights her father's journey from Jim Crow south and World War II to his role as a pioneer in the early days of the NFL, and beyond to family, retirement and a sound mind. Throughout this book the author reflects on her father's influence in her life as well as the spiritual and historical significance of his journey.
