In Crimson Storm Surge, veteran sports reporter Christopher Walsh not only recounts Alabama football's colorful history, but also focuses on its own season on the brink under the guidance of new coach Mike Shula, who overcame the Price scandal and other distractions to lead the team to bowl eligibility in its first year off probation. The book concludes with some thoughts on the Tide's promising future-and a view toward its first national championship since 1992. | Crimson Storm Surge by Christopher J.
