The Dynasty

This long book is an outstanding narrative about the New England Patriots and their unparalleled 20 year dynasty in the NFL. The main character is Robert Kraft. The story of how he actually became the owner of the Patriots is as interesting as any part of the book. I am a Patriots fan, but knew little about this. Kraft, quarterback Tom Brady, and Coach Bill Belichick are the main characters in this true story of a football team. There are so many interesting subplots in this book. This was one of the year\’s best books. I loved it. It is one of my all-time favorite sports books, and NOT just because I am a Pats fan. (My other favorites are Bill Parcells: A Football Life and Yogi Berra: A Life Behind the Mask – both associated with teams that are Boston rivals). In The Dynasty, Benedict did a great job weaving the personal stories behind the scenes together with football action and controversies. While it is a long book, my only criticism would be that I wanted to know more about many of Belichick\’s on-field decisions, especially ones that ran counter to conventional wisdom. I see why the author chose not to make this longer. When I finished this book, I felt like I do after finishing a great epic novel, one which transports you to its world. I did not want to leave. This is sports writing at its best.

I hate the Patriots and even I found this to be a great book. I definitely recommend.

We’ve heard most of the stories or rumors but I appreciated the inside look at how it all happened.

I\’m a Bills fan but still loved the well written and well researched story. awesome book

Jeff is a great author! I highly recommend this book as well as his book on Tiger Woods! Couldn’t put them down.
