From Lambeau to Lombardi, Favre to Rodgers, and the "Ice Bowl" to the frozen tundra of Lambeau Field, Leo vividly traces Wisconsin's impact on pro football history. He profiles native sons like J.J. Watt, Dave Robinson and Arnie Herber who became Super Bowl icons. Big-game memories involving coaching legends Mike Holmgren, Andy Reid and others come alive in gripping detail.

Equal parts sports history, human drama and state pride, "Heroes Made in Wisconsin" is a must-read for any Wisconsin football fan. Leo's engaging narrative captures how a state etched into America's dairyland identity shaped the course of the NFL's ultimate game.
