Fighting Irish Football spans the history of college football’s most storied program, featuring many never-before-seen photos from the vaults of the University of Notre Dame Archives.
Expertly selected by Charles Lamb and Elizabeth Hogan, these breathtaking images capture the history of Notre Dame football—and of sports photography—from its beginnings in the late nineteenth century through today, with sections devoted to the coaches, players, fans, games, and venues. The photos are remarkable not only as historic artifacts, but as art, chosen for their striking composition, creative use of light, and unique photographic techniques. From the sport’s humble origins on campus to legendary Fighting Irish victories, Lamb and Hogan reveal the stories behind the game through these rare images and engaging, informative commentary.
Compelling and unforgettable, Fighting Irish Football builds a special connection between today’s fans and the generations of fans who came before, united by their love of Notre Dame.
