From the Publisher:
The evocative story of James Blake, the higest-ranking American tennis player, who broke his back on the court in May 2004 and shortly thereafter lost his father to stomach cancer, only to return to tennis and become one of the world's top players.
In the spirit of Lance Armstrong's "It's Not About the Bike" and Joan Didion's "The Year of Magical Thinking" comes this remarkable tale of strength and determination from one of tennis's biggest stars.
A story of passion, willpower, and the unbreakable bonds between a father and a son, "Breaking Back" is one athlete's account of finding hope in the bleakest of times.

It's A Fact!
Barry White was the arranger of 'Harlem Shuffle' by Bob & Earl...not strictly a sporting fact, but an interesting one nonetheless!
