Jose Canseco Is Not The Only Author Here
I do a lot of reading. And when I get a chance, I try to read some books written by athletes. I’ve even started a little book club. I’ve just learned of two more books that could be added to that list in the near future.
The Coach Matters: Life Lessons Beyond The Playing Field by Venus Williams
“Williams will reflect on how her own coaches’ advice, including that of her father and mother, helped her make tennis history and succeed in the business world and beyond. The tennis star will interview other business, sports, entertainment, fashion and political icons who had high school, college or professional coaches whose sports maxims translated well off the court and field.” (Publishers Weekly)
An Untitled Memoir by Josh Hamilton
“Texas Ranger Josh Hamilton’s comeback story from blue chip prospect to addict to American League All Star; after being confronted by his grandmother at rock bottom, Hamilton embraced Christianity, found his faith, and made it back to the pinnacle of his profession.” (Prayers For Blowouts)
Two stories worth checking out in a few years.
