| Summary | "Football Days" by William H. Edwards is a memoir written in the early 20th century, reflecting on the game of football and the impact it had on the lives of players and coaches at Princeton University. The book intricately weaves together personal memories and anecdotes about prominent figures in American college football, highlighting the camaraderie, competition, and growth experienced through the sport. The opening of "Football Days" sets the stage by introducing the author's formative experiences in football, beginning with his initial fascination upon arriving in New York City to watch a Yale-Princeton game in 1891. The narrative reveals Edwards' transition from a curious onlooker to an aspiring player at preparatory schools, culminating in his journey to Princeton. He shares vivid memories of influential teammates, coaching figures, and significant matches that shaped his love for the game, emphasizing the emotional highs and lows of competition and the strong bonds formed through shared experiences on and off the field.
