You've got the football in your hands every play.

You absorb all fame, all glory, all blame, all PTSD associated with the position.

There's no profession quite like American Quarterback.

ESPN Senior Writer Seth Wickersham took on this sprawling project with his book, "American Kings: A Biography of the Quarterback." Purchase it here. With exceptional access to the best quarterbacks in NFL history, including Steve Young, John Elway and the Mannings, Seth brings the position of Quarterback to life as only he can.
