OverviewIn 1998, Peyton Manning was the #1 draft pick out of Tennessee for the Indianapolis Colts. Under the watchful eye of his father, former NFL quarterback Archie, Peyton managed to have the best rookie season in NFL history. While he broke a number of records, his team struggled with a 3-13 record. In 1999, Peyton continued his incredible rise with a Pro Bowl season and this time the team matched his standard - going 13-3 and champions of the AFC East. MANNING is the story of Peyton's dizzying rise to the elite of the NFL, and the mentorship of his father, himself a #1 draft pick for the New Orleans Saints in 1971, who harkens back to a time when football and gallantry were one and the same. He helps guide Peyton through the money, the endorsements and every day life in the NFL. Meanwhile, Archie is also watching his youngest son, Eli, pick up the gauntlet as he begins playing quarterback for Archie's alma mater, Ole Miss. MANNING is a compelling book about family, football, and America.
