A Tiger Walk Through History: The Complete Story of Auburn Football from 1892 to the Tuberville Era
by Paul Hemphill
In this lively book, Paul Hemphill tells the story of the progress of Auburn from that first game – coached by Auburn legend George Petrie – through the team's growth and development into the national force it is today. Hemphill records the many highs and occasional lows, and the heartbreak and jubilation each caused, noting the standouts great and small on the way.
Paul Hemphill was sports editor of the Auburn Plainsman during the National Championship season of 1957 and is the author of sixteen books, most recently Lovesick Blues, the best-selling biography of Hank Williams; Leaving Birmingham, nominated for a Pulitzer Prize; and four novels, one of them – Long Gone – filmed to much acclaim by HBO.
