'God has plans for you.' It was a message Carlos Ray Norris heard from his mother many times. In fact, it was the first thing she whispered in his ear as she held her newborn son in her arms. It would play like a mantra in his ears all throughout his life.
But no one could have forseen the extra-ordinary life Chuck Norris would have before him. The little baby who was not expected to survive his birth would have also survive extreme poverty, debilitating shyness, and an alcoholic father. Whiling serving a tour of duty in Korea, Chuck would happen upon a martial arts demonstration that would be the first step on a journey to becoming not only an owner and instructor in a chain of successful martial arts schools, but also becoming personal friends and occasional workout partner of legend, Bruce Lee.

Soon millions of people around the world know Chuck Norris as the star of more than twenty motion pictures. Read by his son, Michael Norris. Unabridged. 6 hours. 5 Cassettes.
