I just finished reading a great new book for any Bear fan. Chicago Bears: The Complete Illustrated History by Lew Freedman is a great combination of stories, statistics, pictures and brief biographies.

Lew Freedman is an editor for the Chicago Tribune and author of two dozen books, including:Stadium Stories: Chicago Bears and Game of My Life:Chicago Bears.
