"Welcome to Horlickville: History of the Racine, Wisconsin National Football League Franchise"by Matthew C. Snyder

A forgotten piece of Wisconsin football history emerges in this self-published title. Recent football fans may not be aware of the Racine football teams, but Snyder goes above and beyond to ensure all fans learn something new. This reviewer would have appreciated more of a narrative through their handful of seasons in the 1920s, but true football fans will enjoy the length and intricate details. Snyder includes photographs on almost every page and even includes for a play-by-plays for each game. Well-known players like Curly Lambeau and lesser-known local legends like Hank Gillo make appearances. The large blocks of text may be difficult to read for some individuals but the detail included does not disappoint. Die-hard football fans will want to check out this forgotten piece of early football history.
