Title: Great for Football Fans and Coaches!
Product review: Grisham creates the story of Eddie Rake, a hard nosed, no-nonsense football coach, and the legacy he left behind in the football crazed town of Messina. Narrated from a former All-American, Neely Crenshaw, this novel deals with the impact, both negative and positive, that coaches can have on players. Crenshaw and the other players spent most of their young adult lives simultaneously fearing and adoring their coach. His death brings them together one last time to remember their "glory days" as Spartans.The novel is full of football flashbacks and high school regrets. I would recommend this book to an individual student who is interested in any athletics not just football. This book could be a great starting point for other Grisham novels and fits nicely into the Living in Fear theme.
