    About this ebook

    Tales from the Oregon Ducks Sideline takes the reader on a fun-filled trip through Oregon’s gridiron history. Author Brian Libby brings Duck fans out to the 50 yard line and into the locker room as he tells colorful tales about the Oregon football program, from its start in 1894 to today, culminating in the hard-fought BCS Championship game against Auburn in January 2011.

    Brian Libby

    I'm a retired history teacher living in Minnesota. I was born in Maine in 1949, studied at Johns Hopkins and Purdue (Ph.D. 1977; my fields are military history, European diplomatic history, and modern Germany), and taught at a prep school in Minnesota (Shattuck-St. Mary's) from 1978 to 2016. I began writing the "Mercenaries" books in 2001. I got a fine agent for "Storm Approaching," but even fine agents do not always sell books, so, after a long wait on one major publisher--the first reader approved it, the second did not--I decided to publish the book myself. There are three more volumes in the series--Gold and Glory, Resolution, and The Free Lands. I have also published And Gladly Teach, a satirical novel about a boarding school, and Hodgepodge, a small book of humorous essays on many topics. Why do I write? I could quote J.R.R. Tolkien ("... the desire to try his hand at a really long story that would hold the attention of his readers, amuse them, delight them, and at times maybe excite or deeply move them") or I could quote Samuel Johnson ("No man but a blockhead ever wrote, except for money"). I agree with both these masters.
