Book Reviews of Sports Illustrated: Brett Favre: The Tribute (Sports Illustrated)
Book Review: Great Read For Fans
Summary: 4 Stars
After reading this book, I can see why the media and the sports world loved Brett. This book had some great stories and pictures. Definitely a collectors item.Reading about the Raiders game when Brett's dad had passed away the week before brought tears to my eyes. I can imagine how difficult that game was for Brett. This was a fun and easy read that sports fans and those interested in getting insight on a celebrities life will enjoy. I'm looking forward to reading Bobby Brown: The Truth, The Whole Truth and Nothing But??also. I read a few news paper articles about the book and it seems as though he discusses his rise to stardom and reveals the mistakes he made. Like Brett's book it's complete with a lot of photographs which I love. I believe pictures are sometimes worth a thousand words.
Summary of Sports Illustrated: Brett Favre: The Tribute (Sports Illustrated)
No other contemporary athlete has been as admired among peers and beloved among fans as Brett Favre. From his arrival in Green Bay in 1992 to his retirement in 2008, the Packers' strong-armed, free-spirited quarterback thrilled NFL fans with his exemplary talent and passionate style, and inspired them with his courage in confronting personal challenges. SPORTS ILLUSTRATED's tribute to Favre is the definitive account of a remarkable career, collecting the best stories and photographs from the pages of SI to chronicle Favre's rise from humble coach's son in tiny Kiln, Miss., to premier passer of his generation and th personification of the American sports ideal.The product of SI's unparalleled NFL access and insight, Brett Favre: The Tribute include 16 of SI's finest Favre stories, by such renowned writers as Peter King, Michael Silver, Leigh Montville, Jeff MacGregor and Alan Shipnuck, plus brilliant pictures from the recognized leader in sports photography--stunning action shots, intimate portraits and candid off-the-field moments--that illuminate this incomparable athlete. Brett Favre: The Tribute stands as an enduring testimonial to an American icon, a man who, more than any other of our time, played his game the way it should be played.
