20 Great Football Reads Even Non-Fans Will Love

Don't know a blitz from a bump-and-run? Only vaguely know that the red and gold team is playing…the other red and gold team? Feigning interest in football only to get in on the snacks? If you're feeling left out of the Super Bowl hoopla, can we recommend shuffling off (snacks in hand, of course) to a quiet corner with a book? Perhaps even a book about football. For you, we're not recommending a book on gameplay or strategy, but there are many fascinating reads—biographies, mysteries, novels, and more—related to the world of football and the people in it that are just plain good reads for anyone.
