Question
Are you aware of a book or website that provides detailed explanation of the past rules of football at both level of the game (i.e. definition of each rule and the reason it was created)? I'm a novice football historian and I want to learn how and why the game has changed. Thank you in advance for any information that you can provide me.

Answer
Terrance, hello!  If you compile the information, let me know and I'll buy your book!  I have a trivia book at the editor's desk to get published by Fall.  I have attached a number of websites to get you started!

Take care and have an awesome week!
