description: By 1958 the once formidable University of Alabama football program had reached an all-time low -- only four wins in three years. A savior was found in Paul Bear Bryant, and he was given free rein to work his miracle. Turnaround offers the first comprehensive look at how Bear Bryant turned the Tide. Through interviews with players and coaches, detailed accounts of practice sessions, play-by-play recountings of the games from Bears inaugural year, and photos from the 1958 season, Turnaround is a look at the culture of the '50s, Alabama's love affair with football, and the relentless quest of a fascinating man for the keys to victory.
