From the school's very first team led by coach John L. Keith in 1899 to Dave Doeren's most recent squad and its unforgettable trip to the 2013 Orange Bowl, Northern Illinois Huskies Football will dazzle and delight fans of the subject with its irresistible mix of pride and nostalgia. Lavishly illustrated with photographs from throughout the program's storied history, and with a foreword by beloved former head coach Joe Novak, Verdun's book deserves a place in the collection of any football fan ever to sing: Forward together forward. There's victory in view. Come on you Huskies. Fight on you Huskies. And win for NIU.
