A narrative about the 1970s Pittsburgh Steelers empire, follows this storied team across the decades and examines what the game of football gives to players, and takes from them. After more than two hundred interviews, Pomerantz shows why to a man every Steeler, full well knowing the costs, unhesitatingly replies, “I’d do it again.” Their Life’s Work tells the full, intimate story of the 1970’s Steelers. More than that, it tells football’s story. Shortlisted for the 2014 PEN/ESPN Award for Literary Sports Writing.
