Product Description
Pittsburgh Steelers: The Complete Illustrated History documents the great moments in a tradition that stretches back more than seventy-five years and offers an unmatched legacy of success. Fresh on the heels of a record sixth Super Bowl victory, the Pittsburgh Steelers are a team steeped in history and success. The roster of players who have donned the black and gold reads like an all-star team, and the 1970s dynasty alone featured nine players currently enshrined in the Pro Football Hall of Fame. This book celebrates those players and many more, as well as coaching legends such as Chuck Noll and Bill Cowher, and the passionate fans throughout western Pennsylvania and across the nation who have never failed the team that never failed them. Lavishly illustrated with color and black-and-white images from throughout the team's history, Pittsburgh Steelers brings to powerful life the on- and off-field exploits of this iconic franchise.

 Nice book but the book does contain mistakes December 26, 2009

I bought two of these books for Christmas at Costco's for $18.99. Looks like a great book for any Steelers fan, and living in Pittsburgh, we are all Steelers fans! Gave it to my nephew today and he and my brothers were looking at it. Clearly on page 165 it lists the year by year win/losses. Our record was 15-1 in the 2004 season and the book says we were 12-4, 2007, 2003 and more are wrong too!
Too bad....was a great book but the mistakes are just too glaring.
 Any sports collection will find this a popular history December 20, 2009

Pittsburgh Steelers: The Complete Illustrated History is a pick recommended for any sports library and documents some great moments in the history of the sport. From the players who have produced winning plays to teams, legendary coaches, and fans that have made the game successful, color and black and white images pack a record of the Pittsburgh Steeler's many successes. Any sports collection will find this a popular history.
 Good shipping - disappointed in the book November 5, 2009

We were happy with the delivery and shipping of the book; however, there were BIG mistakes in the Steelers stats for this decade in the book -- I mean they got the win-loss record wrong and the scores of various games were completely off. In the book, it indicated that Steelers had a LOSING season last year -- They WON the Super Bowl for Heaven's Sake -- losing season?! Disappointed in the book. Contacted the publisher and received a response that was little more than an "oops, sorry" letter -- they could have at least reimbursed us for the cost. This is not the book for a true Steeler fan.
