Love them or hate them, what New England has been able to do over
the past 15 years is nothing short of remarkable. Now, not only
boasting four Super Bowl Championships, the Patriots also have the
best coach in the league, a smart and savvy front office, and a
future Hall of Fame quarterback who is internationally recognized
as the face of the NFL. And as the Patriots continue to dominate,
on the field as well as in the media and the American pop culture
landscape, the harder it is for anyone to remember them as anything
other than a model franchise and the ultimate paradigm of success
and accomplishment. Anyone, that is, except for Jerry Thornton. It
wasn't always sunshine and roses for the Patriots; in fact, for the
bulk of their existence, it was exactly the opposite. Though
difficult to fathom now, the New England Patriots of old were not
just bad-they were laughably bad. Not too long ago, the Pats were
not only the laughingstock of the NFL, but of the entire sporting
world. From Darkness to Dynasty reveals the unlikely history of the
New England Patriots as it has never been told before. From their
humble beginnings as a team bought with rainy day money by a man
who had no idea what he was doing to that fateful 2001 season that
saw them win their first Super Bowl, Jerry Thornton shares the
wild, humiliating, unbelievable, and wonderful stories that
comprised the first 40 years of what would ultimately become the
most dominant franchise in NFL history. Witty, hilarious, and
brutally honest, From Darkness to Dynasty returns to the thrilling,
perilous days of yesteryear-a welcome corrective for those who hate
the Patriots, and a useful reminder, for those who love them, that
all glory is fleeting.
