I'm a big Kurt Warner fan, both as a football player and a peron. However, this book is almost degrading to him. Although everyone quoted speaks highly of Kurt, the author's presentation is extremely poor. It reads like he taped interviews and transcribed them word for word into a book. Very boring.

I love books. I love St. Louis. I love sports. However, I could not even finish this book. I got it for 50 cents at the library and was quick to realize why the previous owner was able to part with it. The most enjoyable thing was that the book is so bad that someone wrote tiny notes towards the end about how pointless most of the stories were.

I live in St. Louis and love both the Rams and Kurt Warner. I bought this book expecting to find out information on Warner and the magical season, but got rambling ... instead. The book is one chapter after another of people telling stories about themselves, some of which do not even know Warner. I bought the book at a local grocery store that had a huge promotion, selling copies at half-off the list price. Good books do not sell for half-price immediately after being published. It is not worthy of a match to burn it.

I am a huge Kurt Warner fan. However, this book was terrible. It seemed that it was thrown together so it could get to market quick. I wouldn't want anyone to waste their time with this. I normally don't try to trash items that people put a lot of work into. However, I don't feel there was lot of work put into this project. The book consists of stories/letters from people that knew him. Most stories are disjointed at best. Sorry Kurt. Just don't feel this book is worthy of your achievements.

Excellent book for those that would like to look at the spiritual side of Kurt Warner and several other Rams that played key roles in their championship season. Stories and comments not found in "All Things Possible". Buy both books to get the full story!

I think that this book is one of best Kurt Warner Biographys of many. I would requst this book to a person that likes sports. Also I would say that you would have to would have to know some things about the sport of football. There is alot of terms that only the people that like sports would know about. There is some things that this book doesn't cover. If you want to know more about Kurt Warner look at some of the other books that Amozon carries.
