Guts & Glory: Golden Age of American Football, Art Ed. Ameche - Reviews
"Imagine an iconic old-school NFL picture, chances are it was taken by Neil Leifer."Sports Illustrated, New YorkUnited States |

"...his most arresting work, collected in the lavish, limited edition Guts and Glory: The Golden Age of America Football 1958-1978 zooms out from the superstars to show the game's balletic violence on a wider scale-running backs wind milling over tangled defenders, pass rushers piling onto quarterbacks, linebackers crushing into centers with atom-splitting force."Men's Vogue, New YorkUnited States |

"Yankee Stadium di New York, 25 dicembre 1958.I padroni di casa dei Giants e i Colts di Baltimora si affrontano nella più bella partita della storia del football. A novanta secondi dal termine, i Colts pareggiano grazie a un lancio stellare del quarterback Johnny Unitas: è la prima volta che una finale va ai supplementari e in tutti gli States cinquanta milioni di telespettatori restano incollati alla diretta tv. Nello stadio c'è un ragazzino, Neil Leifer, che quel giorno compie sedici anni e scende a bordo campo con la macchina fotografica: il giorno seguente i suoi scatti dello storico touchdown escono su Sports Illustrated. Da allora, Neil è considerato uno dei più importanti fotografi sportivi del mondo. Oggi, proprio quelle immagini aprono il volume della collezione Guts and Glory: The golden age of American Football di TASCHEN. L'obiettivo di Leifer racconta i match, i giocatori, gli allenatori che hanno alimentato la leggenda del football. Uno spettacolo di muscoli e fango, non solo per il pubblico Usa."Panorama, RomaItaly |
