Publication Date: September 1, 2001

This book is the inspiring biography of a local boy who makes good. Brandon Burlsworth excelled in high school football, making All-Conference and All-State. He walked on to the University of Arkansas to become the first All-American from that program in a decade. He was selected in the third round of the 1999 NFL draft by the Indianapolis Colts. He went to mini-camp, but was killed a few days later in an auto accident. His motivation and drive to be the best stemmed from his character of integrity and the stand that he took as a Christian. His life proved that success can still be earned the "old-fashioned way." His is truly a remarkable story that will be an inspiration to all who read. [This version has an Indianapolis Colts cover]
