I really like George Foreman and so I'm not sure if I really liked the book for that reason or because it was a good book.
George tells about his life growing up in a poor neighborhood in Houston and all the trouble he was in right up until he found Christ as an adult and started to repair his damaged life.
I find him to be a bit boastful in his honesty and yet at the same time, humble, telling his story with a smile on his face, despite the many mistakes he'd made and hopeful that he's learned enough to go forward in life with a good attitude.
