內容簡介

This book tells the little-known story of the Oorang Indians, a traveling professional football team comprised entirely of Native Americans. Created by dog kennel owner Walter Lingo and coached by star athlete Jim Thorpe, the team spent two seasons in the NFL in 1922 and 1923 traveling throughout the country and drawing crowds wherever they went.
