Let’s say you’re the coach of the Minnesota Vikings, deciding which players should start in a Super Bowl matchup against the toughest team in the AFC. But instead of choosing from the current roster, you have every player in the team’s 60-year history in your locker room. Who starts at quarterback: scrambling Fran Tarkenton, gunslinger Daunte Culpepper, or deadly accurate Kirk Cousins? At defensive end, do you play fearsome Carl Eller, fan favorite Jared Allen, sack specialist Chris Doleman, or stalwart Jim Marshall? Combining career stats, common sense, and a host of intangibles, veteran sportswriter Chris Tomasson imagines an embarrassment of riches and sets the all-time All-Star Vikings lineup for the ages.

Title: Great Purple Memories
Review: This is a must-read for Vikings fans. The author did an outstanding job of combing through Minnesota's storied gridiron history in selecting the greatest players. I was really impressed that equal consideration is given to players of the 60s and 70s as to the Vikings of today. It would have been very easy for the book to reflect a "prisoner of the moment" mindset. You might not agree with all the choices, but the research and sincere dedication to the franchise's history can't be questioned. SKOL!

Title: Lots of great detail
Review: This book is a good one not only for someone who is a fan of the NFLâs Minnesota Vikings, but for fans of pro football in general. Its strength is a lot of great detail about the players discussed, many of whom talk about their own careers, both their successes and failures. It is the kind of book that someone could have written by rote but the author goes well beyond that.
