The compelling, complete story of his legend, and his faults.-- Chicago Tribune.
Gritty and revelatory, Gunslinger is a big sports biography of the highest order, a fascinating portrait of the man with the rocket arm whose Life has been one of triumph, fame, tragedy, embarrassment, and--ultimately--redemption.
