Readers of the Pillars of the NFL by Patrick McCaskey know that George Halas is one of the 10 most successful coaches in NFL history. In fact, the first chapter of Pillars of the NFL was focused on Halas and what a great contribution he made not only to the sport of football, but to our country. 

Patrick McCaskey and Friends

Certainly in these times of uncertainty, it also made perfect sense to produce a book on Halas for younger readers and discuss Bears history and distill the wisdom of the great coach. Halas was a motivator, but he was necessarily focused on the Bears and professional football. But with Patrick McCaskey, grandson of George Halas, we had an opportunity to examine the "winning ways" of Halas from someone who knew him very well. Our book, PAPA BEAR AND THE CHICAGO BEARS' WINNING WAYS does just that and more.
