Profusely illustrated with both black-and-white and color photographs. Also includes a brand new never opened Companion DVD entitled: Dan Marino: My Life in Football: Where th Dream Began, which is housed in a clear plastic DVD case affixed to the inner rear board. "You know you're living in rarefied air when the topic of "the best there ever was" follows you like a shadow. Such is the case for Hall of Fame quarterback Dan Marino, who holds dozens of NFL passing reecords, including most completions (4,967), most yardage (61,361), and most touchdowns (420), making him the most prolific quarterback in league history. But for all he accomplished on the football field - as a Miami Dolphin for 17 spectacular seasons, as well as during his All-American high school and college careers in Pittsburgh - Marino has distinguished himself from other professional athletes of his era with his off-the-field contributions and his intense devotion to his family and friends. As he joins his sport's greatest legends in Cantion, Ohio, he brings with him a distinction that goes far beyond his incredible athletic achievements. His legacy will be that of a man who raised his position and his sport to new heights, as well as that of a man who redefined the image of the American hero during a time when professional sports needed lasting and meaningful role models. Marino fulfilled the roles of sports hero and American icon like few before him, pouring his energies equally and generously into his career, his family, and hs community. This spectacular pictorial tells his entire story - in his own words and through never-before-seen archival family photographs and video footabge. It is the rare and inspirational story of an exceptional athlete who realized that he had the God-given tools to rewrite the NFL record books, and who walked the extra miles to make the world around him a better place. This is Dan Marino's personal story, and, like his life, it goes way beyond his accomplishments on the football field." - from the inner front jacket flap. "Includes DVD with never-before-seen archival footage: Where the Dream Began. Football fans everywhere know of Dan Marino's amazing NFL career and his dozens of league records, but little is publicly known about the early path he took on his road to superstardom. Where the Dream Began chronicles his formative years growing up in Pittsburgh, where he starred in both football and baseball for Central Catholic High School, and his All-American career at the University of Pittsburgh. The rare video footage is accentuated by present-day interviews with Marino and several of his coaches and teammates. Marino and his colleagues all reflect on the beginning stages of what ultimately became one of the greatest careers in NFL history." - from the rear outer jacket.…

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!
