Jim Brown: The Fierce Life of an American Hero - Mike Freeman

Descriere Jim Brown: The Fierce Life of an American Hero - Mike Freeman

\nThe first, definitive biography of one of the most important, controversial, and outspoken athletes of the 20th century.\n \nHe intimidated people on and off the football field. He was brutal yet brilliant, narcissistic yet magnanimous, relentless yet unyielding. Most of all, he was the greatest football player of all time. He was Jim Brown. A legend in his own time, Jim Brown was revered as an athlete, actor, and unflinching symbol of black pride and self-reliance. In this moving book, Mike Freeman offers the first definitive portrait of the sports star. Based on interviews with Brown, his family, friends, and colleagues, Jim Brown is an honest, complete picture of the man and his turbulent times. Part biography, part cultural history, it is a quintessential American tale--a story of adversity, adulation, tenacity, inspiration, and pride.\n
