Introducing Charger historian Todd Tobias and his book: Charging through the AFL - Chargers' football in the 1960's

Did you know? The San Diego Chargers were the flagship team of the old American Football League - blazing up and down the field in their powder blue and gold uniforms (still the most beautiful uni's in the NFL). Led by the offensive genius of head coach Sid Gillman, the Chargers employed a wide-open style of play that set new standards for offensive football, and changed the game forever with a passing attack that is the basis of the modern-day West Coast Offense.

But the Chargers did not originate in San Diego - they spent 1 year (1960) in Los Angeles … hated it! So they moved their operation to San Diego, and the rest is history - Charger history!

Read all about the history of the Chargers in the 1960's in the new book from Mr. Todd Tobias, Charging through the AFL - Los Angeles and San Diego Chargers' Football in the 1960's. Todd brings us the early Chargers as they have never been seen before. Read about Gilman, Hadl, Alworth, Faison, Ladd, Lincoln, Mix, Lowe, Sweeney, Post, Kocourek, Al Davis (yes, that Al Davis) and many more Charger heroes. Todd is a native San Diegan and a Charger historian - and the Bolt Pride is proud to call him an honorary Bolt Pride member. Todd spent 4-1/2 years doing research on all there is to know about the Chargers in the 1960's. We're just excited that he has written a book to share his stories with the rest of the Charger faithful. This beautiful book - including over 300 timeless pictures of Charger history, is a must have for any Bolt Pride member and hardcore Charger fan.
