Undefeated
Jim Thorpe and the Carlisle Indian School Football Team
Steve Sheinkin
Undefeated is an astonishing underdog sports story that goes beyond the football field. It follows the remarkable journey of Jim Thorpe and Pop Warner, who met in 1907 at the Carlisle Indian School in Pennsylvania. Together, they formed one of the most successful teams in football history, challenging the elite and vowing to become a powerhouse in American football. But this book is more than just a sports tale. It sheds light on the violent persecution of Native Americans by the U.S. government and the school's mission to erase their cultures. Undefeated is a story of resilience, determination, and the refusal to accept defeat.
