A propos de cet article

As new condition red boards with gold spine lettering contained in a fine condition non price-clipped color photographic dust jacket. Includes Praise for Called to Coach; Foreword by Tony Dungy; Foreword by Joe Paterno; and Acknowledgments. Illustrated with a section of black-and-white photographic plates. Signed by Coach Bobby Bowden with thick black Sharpie on the blank first free front endpaper. "The Story of a Legendary Football Coach and the Secret to His Success. Coach Bobby Bowden is an icon of college football who ran his renowned, top-ranking program with a trademark Southern charm. With his recent retirement, Bowden is ready to give fans and readers the behind-the-scenes story of his fifty-five-year career and the path that helped him become one of college football's most successful coaches and patriarch of the sport's most famous coaching family. Bowden is a living folk hero, and his personality and charm are larger-than-life. From his boyhood in Alabama to his incredible career in college football, Bowden reveals never-before-published details of the moments and events that have defined his life, including the tragic death of his grandson and son-in-law in a 2004 automobile accident and the details of his retirement as FSU's coach at the end of the 2009 season. Called to Coach offers an up-close and personal look at one of the winningest coaches in football history and the contributions he made during his outstanding career. It's an inspiring story of a remarkable man, his award-winning legacy in college football, and the unwavering faith in God that has sustained him through tragedy and triumph." - from the rear outer jacket. "We all know about Coach Bowden's accomplishments on the field and we probably won't see that again in college football in this day and age. What people might not know about Bobby Bowden is the man that he is, the person that he is, and the number of people he impacted, influenced, and inspired." - Nick Saban, head coach, University of Alabama. "Bobby Bowden was coach and mentor to thousands of young men throughout his remarkable fifty-five-year career, and he took that responsibility very seriously. He provided a living example of character and integrity, nurturing not only great football players but also fine husbands, fathers, and role models for future generations. Called to Coach is a story about one of our true national treasures." - President Jimmy Carter.…

Description de la boutique

Vero Beach Books is an antiquarian bookseller with a constantly updated inventory of rare out-of-print books, signed books, children's books, plus a large inventory of ephemeral items such as major U.S. city newspapers going back 100 years and more, golden and silver age fine condition comic books (soon to be added), and many other ephemeral items as well as much more recent popular volumes. We have been in business for 25 years, originally known as Emerson Books (named after one of our owner's favorite authors, to wit, Ralph Waldo Emerson) located back then in Westport, Connecticut. That said, we are here to serve you, to offer you fine quality items that are conservatively described so that you will always be pleasantly surprised and delighted with your purchase. Twenty-five years in the bookselling business has borne out our stellar service oriented reputation; the only difference is that now we are located in the almost always sunny and warm climate of Vero Beach, Florida. Again, we are here to serve you and, as was the case when we were previously known on ABEBooks.com as Emerson Books, we will continue to offer our very popular 100% free search service for those hard to find books rare and out of print books. Oftentimes we are also able to obtain these rare finds at very good discounts to our customers' so it is always worth contacting us in such cases!
