Editorial Reviews
Book Description
Paul "Bear" Bryant created legendary, successful football programs at Kentucky, Texas A&M, and the University of Alabama. Bryant redefined coaching excellence through his unique communication and care for players. Using his coaching methods, he achieved an amazing 323 victories and shaped players such as Babe Parilli, Heisman Trophy winner John David Crow, and Joe Namath. In Bear and the audio CD, Bear Bryant: Speaking from the Heart, Bryant tells his life story with candor and insight, giving the reader a chance to understand the man behind the legend.

From the Publisher
"I want to be as close as I can with a boy without destroying the coach-player relationship. I remember so well, after I played my last game, how alone I felt, and I want my boys to always feel they can come to me. And I'll say this, you can learn as much from them as you can teach them." --Paul "Bear" Bryant

"...I realized that the implications were greater than that. ...the things Paul `Bear' Bryant did, and the things he said, achieved a relevance far beyond the context he said and did them in. Beyond anything even he would have dared imagine, actually. I believe now that the length of his shadow might very well be endless. A coach for the ages, yes. But much more." --from the Introduction by John Underwood
