Book Reviews of Kim Zmeskal: Determination to Win: A Biography
Book Review: Kim Zmeskal, First American To Be World All Around Champion
Summary: 5 Stars
Kim Zmeskal was a gymnast I knew about but not a whole lot about. After reading Kim Zmeskal Determination To Win I feel like I know her almost as well as her parents. I'm not surprised this book is fantastic after reading all three of Krista Quiner's gymnastics bios excellent work is what I've come to expect. Kim will always be remembered for being the first to win the All Around title at the World Championships. This book takes you through her training at Karolyi's when she was five and in the Hope class, through the joyful '91 Worlds, the trauma of Barcelona, and Kim's attempt to make a comeback for the Olympics in Atlanta. This is a must reader for Kim and all gymnastics fans
