Michigan's sporting life.

Michigan has long been a state hosting winning home teams, celebrated athletes, and distinguished coaches. We certainly like sports, that’s for sure. Whether your interest lies in football, soccer, fly fishing, or sports history, we have a book for you.

Anyone who knows Michigan football recognizes the great Michigan Stadium which houses the Wolverines. But how was this stadium achieved? What obstacles were overcome, and who spearheaded the monumental transition from the old facilities at Ferry Field to the vast capacity and timeless design of The Big House? Author Robert M. Soderstrom responds to these questions and more, weaving a spirited tale that elaborates on the legacy of Fielding H. Yost as a coaching giant as well as the genius behind the conception and building of The Big House. Take a journey back in time with The Big House, Fielding H. Yost and the Building of Michigan Stadium.

Speaking of great coaches, our best-selling title, The Vision of a Champion, is now available in paperback. This classic, by Anson Dorrance, the world’s most successful women’s soccer coach, offers practical advice and inspiration for all those interested in the sport of soccer.

Or, if football is your game, try Tradition: Bo Schembechler’s Michigan Memories, reviewing Bo’s stellar 21-year career at the helm of Michigan football.
