This is a story following, but not distinctly a sequel to, Mr. Camp's successful juvenile, "The Substitute." It is a story dealing principally with football in college, but including rowing and other sports. Mr. Camp's idea in this book is to give a little more of a picture of college life and the relations, friendships, enmities, etc., of the students rather than to tell nothing but a football story. In other words, the book is more of an attempt at the "Tom Brown at Rugby" idea than a purely athletic story, although the basis of the story, as in "The Substitute," is still athletics.
The Substitute
Illustrated in Colors, 12mo, Cloth, $1.50.
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.
