Plattsmouth, Nebraska lies at the confluence of the Platte and
Missouri rivers. The people of Plattsmouth are proud of their small
town's rich history, of their strength and determination as a
community. They also share something that larger towns cannot,
something that for generations has helped unite them and shape
their very lives. What they share is a community-wide excitement on
fall Friday nights, the rush of a close game, the heartbreaking
losses, the exhilaration of a big win - what they share is the
Plattsmouth Blue Devils.
" Go Blue Devils : A History of Plattsmouth High School
Football, 1893 -1979," by former Plattsmouth resident Jim Elworth,
presents a one-of-a-kind account of a high school football team and
the town that has rallied around it for more than one hundred
years. Elworth's comfortable and at times humorous prose brings us
season after season of game-day excitement, rendered in detail from
years of researching and writing.
But "Go Blue Devils " is more than a story of game scores. It is
a history of accomplished, hard working, down-to-earth townspeople.
It is a history of the town itself, told through the exploits of
local boys giving their all on the fields of sport. It is a story
of those local boys inspiring their community and going on to live
rich, positive and valuable lives.
