This review is from: I Remember Walter Payton: Personal Memories of Football's Sweetest" Superstar by the People Who Knew Him Best" (Hardcover)
The book was surprisingly good. The interviews were diverse and well written, and highlighted what I already knew; that Walter Payton was a special man and an awesome athlete. A young man asked to read it, and finished it in a week (not normally a reader), so in case you're searching for a book for the young man in your life, this would be a good one to choose.
