The Book of Manning DVD

A father-and-son story written into football folklore, it can be argued that no family has had more influence on a sport than the Mannings. Archie, the patriarch, a star quarterback at the University of Mississippi and then with the New Orleans Saints, followed by oldest son Cooper, whose football dreams were cut short by a spinal condition, then sons Peyton and Eli, both of them quarterbacks, All-SEC, number one draft picks, back-to-back Super Bowl champions and MVPs.

Narrated by actor John Goodman, The Book of Manning features interviews with Archie, Olivia, Cooper, Peyton and Eli Manning along with other family members, friends, former teammates and coaches as well as never-before-seen photos and home movie footage of Archie and his sons. Through it all, director Rory Karpf explores how a tragedy shaped the course of not only Archie's life, but his family's as well.

Explores the personal and professional life of former NFL and Ole Miss quarterback Archie Manning and how the sudden loss of his father impacted his life and the way he and his wife Olivia raised their three sons.
