One of the greatest coaches in sports history, John Wooden is as treasured for his personal philosophy as he is for his remarkable achievements on the basketball court.
This exclusive two-eBook set showcases the legendary coach’s distinctive views on leadership, values, family, and the true meaning of success. Containing personal reminiscences from sports luminaries and many never-before-seen photos, Wooden: A Legacy in Words and Images celebrates a man who achieved so much and helped so many by living a life founded on simple truths.
This two-eBook set includes:
Wooden
In this national bestseller, John Wooden shares his personal philosophy on family, achievement, success, and excellence. Raised on a small farm in south-central Indiana, he offers lessons and wisdom learned throughout his career at UCLA and life as a dedicated husband, father, and teacher.
These lessons, along with personal letters from Bill Walton, Denny Crum, Kareem Abdul-Jabbar, and Bob Costas, among others, have made Wooden: A Lifetime of Observations and Reflections on and off the Court an inspirational classic.
The Wisdom of Wooden
John Wooden wrote his final book in the last months before his death. Filled with his most treasured memories and more than 100 photographs, many never before published, The Wisdom of Wooden: My Century On and Off the Court, captures a life spent serving others. Ultimately it was the life he lived that served as a model for his greatest lesson of all: a deep commitment to family, friends, and faith—the bedrock values of the man we all called, “Coach.”
“The Wisdom of Wooden has given me the life that I have . . . Thanks, Coach, for your faith and patience.”
—Bill Walton
“The Wisdom of Wooden is a lifetime of Coach Wooden’s ideas on how to live life without sacrificing your moral principles. His life is a prime example of how this can be done—one that we can all learn from.”
—Kareem Abdul-Jabbar
