Description ▲
Here is an illuminating comment on a time and an attitude that have passed. It was in 1943 that Ensign Nile Kinnick, Iowa's only Heisman Trophy winner and one of the last of a breed of American hero, died in a plane crash in the waters of the Gulf of Paria. And it is in "A Hero Perished" that his full story is finally told.
