In Conversation with Jay Busbee

Join us on Wednesday, November 12, at 6:30 p.m. for In Conversation With author Jay Busbee as he discusses Iron in the Blood: How the Alabama vs. Auburn Rivalry Shaped the Soul of the South.

The story of college football in Alabama is the story of the South itself. This behind-the-scenes account of the Alabama vs. Auburn rivalry, one of the fiercest in American sports, details its rich history, celebrates the triumphs of both teams, and showcases the larger-than-life power of football to break down barriers and shape an entire culture.

Iron in the Blood is an up-close look at one of America’s most colorful sports rivalries, but it’s also a glimpse into the joy and agony of being a die-hard football fan. It’s the dramatic history of how football has defined a state, inside and outside its stadiums. And it’s the story of how Alabama understands that football is both a magnificent way to celebrate its brightest days and a welcome path to climb out of its darkest ones.

This event is FREE. Copies of Iron in the Blood will be for sale, and Jay will be available to sign books and answer questions.
