"[Freeman is] an excellent storyteller."
--Sports Illustrated
The 1972 Miami Dolphins, under the expert leadership of legendary coach Don Shula, remain to this day the only team in the National Football League ever to enjoy a perfect season with no defeats and no ties. Now, 40 years after sports history was made, acclaimed sports writer Mike Freeman celebrates the Dolphins' singular achievement in Undefeated. A riveting story filled with heartbreaking injuries, miraculous finishes, and tested relationships--featuring a roster of gridiron greats, including Bob Griese, Earl Morrall, Larry Csonka, Paul Warfield, Mercury Morris, Nick Buoniconti and others--Undefeated follows a underdog team on its remarkable run: 14 regular season victories, 2 postseason wins, and a Super Bowl championship. It is a book no football fan will want to miss.
How did a team humiliated in one Super Bowl return the very next year to achieve the impossible?
- Legendary Leadership: Follow legendary coach Don Shula as he transforms a humiliating Super Bowl loss into the driving force behind the single greatest season in football history.
- The Only Perfect Season: Go game-by-game through the historic 17-0 run, from heartbreaking injuries and miraculous finishes to the final Super Bowl VII victory.
- Overcoming Adversity: Discover how the team rallied after losing star quarterback Bob Griese, with 38-year-old veteran Earl Morrall stepping in to keep the dream of perfection alive.
- A Presidential Playbook: Get the unbelievable inside story of President Richard Nixon's late-night calls to Shula to offer his own football strategy.

Undefeated explores the Miami Dolphins' legendary 1972 season, the only perfect season in NFL history, and the journey to the championship--a story of heartbreaking injuries, miraculous finishes, and tested relationships.
Coach Don Shula transformed the team--through hard work, long practices, and his no-nonsense attitude toward the game--from a laughingstock expansion team, where careers went to die, into a championship franchise. Led by such greats as Larry Csonka, Bob Griese, Nick Buoniconti, Larry Little, Mercury Morris, and Jake Scott--the Dolphins were undefeated in the regular season and went on to win Super Bowl VII, in one of the greatest feats of toughness, perseverance, and discipline the NFL has ever seen.
Based on years of research and interviews, Undefeated examines what is perhaps the single greatest accomplishment in team sports history: the unforgettable NFL season in which the Dolphins never lost a single game. There has never been a football team like those Miami Dolphins, and there may never be again.
