Seth Davis thoroughly details the life events, on and off the court, that turned Johnny Wooden the boy into John Wooden the man. Davis tells Wooden's story in a delightfully readable prose that flows remarkably quickly through the decades without leaving any detail untold. We've all heard of the legend that Wooden was, Davis proves it many times over. This is not a basketball book, it's about a man more than worthy of emulating who just happened to be associated with the game.
