Description:
It's not a jock book. It's not a sociology book. It's a
storybook about modern society, ancient virtues, and the power of
love, money and talent to do a little good." -- Jay Hancock,
Baltimore Sun




One day Michael Oher will be among the most highly paid athletes
in the National Football League. When we first meet him, he is one
of thirteen children by a mother addicted to crack; he does not
know his real name, his father, his birthday, or how to read or
write. He takes up football, and school, after a rich, white,
evangelical family plucks him from the streets. Then two great
forces alter Oher: the family's love and the evolution of
professional football itself into a game in which the quarterback
must be protected at any cost. Our protagonist becomes the
priceless package of size, speed, and agility necessary to guard
the quarterback's greatest vulnerability: his blind side.


This paperback edition contains a brand-new 2007 afterword.

Great info TINY BOOK
Format: Paperback
There’s small, and then there’s this book. It’s true that this is a pocket size book. Look at the dimensions and then imagine 6pt font. Giving it four stars because info is great- succinct, useful, and up to date! But taking away one star because it should come with a magnifying lens.

In paper, excellent, as Kindle book, useless
I've used this book, in early editions, in paper (remember that?), for years. Excellent pocket manual. But as a Kindle book, it's useless, unless you have Superman's microscopic vision.
