by Howard E. Ferguson (Compiler)

The The Guide to Fulfilling Dreams, Maximizing Success and Enjoying a Lifetime of Achievement..........................................................."The whole idea is to somehow get an edge . Sometimes it takes just a little extra something to get that edge , but you have to have it."--Don Shula , NFL Coach............................The Edge . It's something you must have if you are to be successful in athletics--and in life . All great people have it . So can you.....Being successful by being the best you can be is what this book is all about . We aren't offering any pie-in-the-sky promises or candy-coated lines of encouragement . This is not a "How to Become a Great Athlete in 30 Days" book , because 30 days of dedication and hard work are just not enough to be the very best you can be . Your drive towards success must be a sustained and continuous effort . We will tell you to dream of becoming a great person --then warn you that you need to do more than just dream to reach that goal.....(from introduction , courtesy of Amazon bookseller

A great book. I wished I had the chance to come across it 15 years ago. Definetely i'd recommend it to any teenager with a desire to be succesful in sports and in life in general. I'm sure I will read it again sometime in the future.

One of the most inspirational books I have ever read. It almost single-handedly wills you to be a better person.
