About this ebook
Part memoir, part inquiry Glory Days asks why can't grown men give up those long-cherished images of gym-class glory and high school heroism?
Bill Reynolds built his youth around sports. As a boy in a blue-collar Rhode Island town, he spend his hours shooting hoops and dreaming of stardom. From his adolescence to high school fame to a scholarship at Brown University, Reynolds enjoyed the perks of athletic glory. But those days soon ended and the onetime star drifted between his past and an uncertain future. Glory Days is a warm, touching, and funny book about what happens when jocks grow older--about getting a life without losing touch with your dreams.
