Philip J. Haythornthwaite is a military historian and author. He has written over 40 books including The Napoleonic Source Book and The Armies of Wellington.
Mike Chappell has been the Colts beat writer for the Indianapolis Star since 1989, making him one of the nation's longest-tenured writers for the same team. He was on hand for the team's first training camp, its first regular-season victory, its first Indianapolis-based playoff appearance, and the franchise's first postseason victory in a quarter-century, a 35-20 win at San Diego in 1995 that served as a springboard to the AFC title game. He chronicled the 1-15 travails of '91, three different 3-13 squads, and the 12-4 outfit in 2003 that reached the AFC championship game.
