Editorial Reviews

Product Description
When George S. Halas was asked to rebuild the Staley Company’s football club in Decatur, Illinois in 1920, nobody could have imagined that his efforts would forever change Sunday afternoons in America. Halas helped found the National Football League, and with it the Chicago Bears, the most storied franchise in the league’s history. From the Galloping Ghost, to the Monsters of the Midway, to that indomitable "46" defense—the "Grabowskis" as their coach named them—Bears teams and players have made such an impact on the city of big shoulders that Chicago will be forever known as a "Bears town."

About the Author
Journalist and author Roy Taylor found his passion as an eight year old when his father took him to his first Bears game at Soldier Field in 1979, as so many Illinois fathers have done with their sons for generations. The author founded his website in 2001, and in Chicago Bears History, Taylor tells the story of the team from 1920 to the present.

5.0 out of 5 stars A great story told through text and photos, November 12, 2004
By Frank M. Henkel (Fabulous Las Vegas) - See all my reviews
(REAL NAME)   
Roy Taylor does a fine job telling one of the most compelling sports stories of all time. The photos/captions combined with the text give a true and complete depiction of what the Bears have meant to the fans since their 1920 inception. This well-written book is a must-have for any Bears fan.

5.0 out of 5 stars Oustanding Chicago Bears Book, October 15, 2005
I had a great time reading this book. It has many photographs throughout the Bears' history, which made the reading more enjoyable. The story is thorough but not dull and boring. The chapters are parceled out in such a fashion that it keeps your interest, and enables you to put the book down and pick right back up again later. This book would be a delight for any Bears fans, young or old.
