BIG-TIME FOOTBALL AT HARVARD, 1905
The Diary of Coach Bill Reid
Edited by Ronald A. Smith
 
 (1994) Bill Reid was hired to "beat Yale," at a salary almost as high as Harvard's president. His diary provides clear evidence that questionable conduct in the name of collegiate competition has its roots in the early history of the game. "Well worth the read. It's a rare, time-capsule look at the infancy of the sport." -- Wall Street Journal
