It describes vividly the efforts of the coaches in "whipping" the football team of a great university into shape for the season's struggles. The whole story is completely realistic--the talks of the coaches to the team; the discussion of points and tactics in the game; the details of individual positions; the daily work on the field.
Who can tell of Yale traditions, Yale ideals, and the militant Yale spirit--which the famous author has marshaled on a hundred football fields--as well as Walter Camp?
"Those interested in the great college game of football will find a most fascinating tale in 'The Substitute,' of which Walter Camp, the well-known coach and authority on the game, is the author."--_Brooklyn Eagle._
