Title: Third and long
Description: "A dying midwest factory town is uplifted when a former Notre Dame football star is hired as the local plant manager. Soon, he is offered not just the job of saving Made Right clothing, but the far more daunting task of saving the town. As it turns out, this may be the one challenge for which his checkered career has prepared him. Third and Long is a moving portrait of a vanishing America hanging by a thread, with perhaps just enough time remaining for one last miraculous play"--Page 4 of cover.
