Tony Walter's book recounts family's involvement with the Green Bay Packers

The Green Bay Packers are part of Tony Walter's DNA.

Walter is a former Green Bay Press-Gazette sports editor whose father, John, was a Press-Gazette Packers reporter and sports editor. His family includes Hagemeisters, Minahans and Torinuses, all notable actors in the Packers story, which gives him a unique perspective.

In his new book, "The Packers, My Dad, and Me: A Family Legacy That Fed a National Obsession," he shares that perspective, aided immeasurably by his father's diaries. The book is available through Amazon and Barnes & Noble, and at Bosse's News & Tobacco in downtown Green Bay, where Walter will do a book signing from 9 a.
