A fascinating book whether a sports fan or not. Paul Bryant's legendary motivational skills coming ringing clear in this highly entertaining account of his life from his impoverished childhood in Morrow Bottom, Arkansas to his rise to the top as coach of one the country's most tradition rich football powers. Whether a coach, CEO or just head of the household, everyone can learn from this captivating account of the life of one of the greatest leaders of young men ever, Paul W. Bryant!

I recommend this book to die hard Bama fans. Bear will always be loved and remembered and this is a good way to continue the legacy. I liked it. I also recommend a "Tailgater's Guide To SEC Football" by Chris Warner. It is good too for SEC fans like me that travel to the games.

Follow as the legendary Coach Paul W. "Bear" Bryant retraces his life from childhood to Alabama's 1974 Sugar Bowl national championship game with Notre Dame. It is a look inside a man among men and a mover of men.

Coach Bryant retraces his life offering advice on his ability to lead. His unique gift of motivation drip from the pages of this modern classic.

For potential Leaders in all walks of life, this book is a must-read. It is the modern day equivalent to Sun-Tzu's Art of War.
