Throughout his life, sportswriter Wally Carew has felt the attraction of sports and the tug of the Spirit. It was the combination of the two which led him to interview and write about some of the most famous athletes of our time, as well as athletes who were not known beyond high school or college. But it is more than that. It is also a poignant examination of the joys and sorrows of high school athletics and being a coach's son. A truly unique book.
