John Wooden: An American Treasure

Descriere: Even today, 33 years after retiring from coaching basketball at UCLA, John Wooden remains America's coach. JOHN WOODEN: AN AMERICAN TREASURE is the definitive book on his extraordinary life, from his early years as a small-town legend from Martinsville, Indiana, and an All-American guard at Purdue to his legendary years at UCLA and the fruitful years following his retirement. In the year of the 44th anniversary from his first national championship at UCLA, and more than 35 years after his autobiography, JOHN WOODEN: AN AMERICAN TREASURE reveals why this kind, endearing, and unbelievably intelligent coaching legend, even at age 98, remains one of the more fascinating, extraordinary, yet humble men of this, or any, generation. Ultimately he has become America's Teacher as much as its most celebrated coach.
