Description

NEW YORK TIMES BESTSELLER * Coming soon as a 10-part docuseries on Apple TV+

From the #1 New York Times bestselling coauthor of Tiger Woods comes the definitive inside story of the New England Patriots—the greatest sports dynasty of the 21st century.

It’s easy to forget that the New England Patriots were once the laughingstock of the NFL, a nearly bankrupt team that had never won a championship and was on the brink of moving to St. Louis. Everything changed in 1994, when Robert Kraft acquired the franchise and soon brought on board head coach Bill Belichick and quarterback Tom Brady. Since then, the Patriots have become a juggernaut, making ten trips to the Super Bowl, winning six of them, and emerging as one of the most valuable sports franchises in the world.

How was the Patriots dynasty built? And how did it last for two decades? In The Dynasty, acclaimed journalist Jeff Benedict provides richly reported answers in a sweeping account based on exclusive interviews with more than two hundred insiders—including team executives, coaches, players, players’ wives, team doctors, lawyers, and more—as well as never-before-seen recordings, documents, and electronic communications.

Through his exhaustive research, Benedict uncovers surprising new details about the inner workings of a team notorious for its secrecy. He puts us in the room as Robert Kraft outmaneuvers a legion of lawyers and investors to buy the team. We listen in on the phone call when the greatest trade ever made—Bill Belichick for a first-round draft choice—is negotiated. And we look over the shoulder of forty-year-old Tom Brady as a surgeon operates on his throwing hand on the eve of the AFC Championship Game in 2018.

But the portrait that emerges in The Dynasty is more rewarding than new details alone. By tracing the team’s epic run through the perspectives of Kraft, Belichick, and Brady—each of whom was interviewed for the book—the author provides a wealth of new insight into the complex human beings most responsible for the Patriots’ success.

The result is an intimate portrait that captures the human drama of the dynasty’s three key characters while also revealing the secrets behind their success. “The Dynasty is…[a] masterpiece…It’s a relationship book, it’s a football book, it’s a business book…you’ll just eat up these stories” (Colin Cowherd).

Stupendous! An absolute must for football fans!

Awesome book, what a story. By no means am I a Patriots fan, but as a fan of football the story of Robert Kraft, Bill Belichick and Tom Brady was a real eye opener. I have new found respect for the dynasty that was forged in New England!

Very informative and entertaining

Very much the Robert Kraft book. A billionaire who supported and gave milllions to Trumps campaign is a hard guy to want to like!; but the author succeeds in this take. The first 40% of the book is how Kraft finally was able to buy his beloved Patriots and then go with his gut and hire Bill Belichick as his coach and GM. Many insights I was not aware of. Then the last 60% is the Super Bowl dynasty from 2001 to 2019 - which will never happen again.
Its a good tale on the highs and lows of grand success. People won’t like you and will come after you.
Throughout the book Kraft is the main character as he manages the ins and outs of running an NFL team, from the commissioners office to the other owners. And how he kept Brady and Belichick together - two men who couldnt be more different, except for their mutual obsession towards winning.
From a fan standpoint, I am not of the Patriots as I always rooted for them to lose. I simply have to bow to the greatness of this team and how Robert Kraft managed to keep the Beattles of football together for 20 year.
