Just in time for the BCS championship game, an Auburn University professor has published a children's book that tries to explain just where the school's "War Eagle" cry comes from.
Adler-Baeder said the book is a synopsis of several versions of the War Eagle story. Other options claim spectators confused "Bald Eagle," the nickname of a tackle on an opposing team in 1914, with "War Eagle," or that it stems from the name Plains Indians used for the golden eagle, whose feathers they wore.
"The War Eagle Story" was illustrated by Tiffany Everett, an amateur artist who lives in Auburn, and published by Mascot Books, which prints children's books for school fundraising. It's for sale on Amazon.com and will be available in Auburn-area bookstores, said Adler-Baeder, who is scheduled to read the book at several Auburn elementary schools Monday.
