Coach: Lessons on the Game of Life

Transformative mentorship shaping life's pivotal moments.

"Coach" isn't just a book about sports—it's a universal tale of mentorship and personal growth that resonates with anyone who's ever been challenged to surpass their own expectations. Michael Lewis's reflective and deeply personal account of his relationship with Coach Fitz will talk to your own experiences with mentors who've pushed you to be your best. This story is as much about the impact of a pivotal figure in one's life as it is about the game of baseball, making it a relatable and inspiring read.

Description

[Lewis] has such a gift for storytelling. ― New York Times There was a turning point in Michael Lewis's life, in a baseball game when he was fourteen years old. The irascible and often terrifying Coach Fitz put the ball in his hand with the game on the line and managed to convey such confident trust in Lewis's ability that the boy had no choice but to live up to it. "I didn't have words for it then, but I do now: I am about to show the world, and myself, what I can do." The coach's message was not simply about winning, but about self-respect, sacrifice, courage, and endurance. In some ways, and even now, years later, Lewis still finds himself trying to measure up to what Coach Fitz expected of him.
