Life lessons from the coach

Should be required reading for every young person in high school..The chapter on his experiences in the Bush (sr.) administration show very clearly with all of the things wrong in Washinton Digger Phelps was one of the few things right...If more people would give back in their lives instead of taking this world would be a better place..this man has...

Great book for any Notre Dame fan

I really enjoyed this book because it was told from Diggers point of view on the different games and situations. My favorite aspect of the book was how he told personal stories about the players and program, stories that you would not hear any place else. Although it only concentrates on twenty years in the Notre Dame program, it still gives fans a great deal of knowledge about the history of a program that experienced great success in the past, went through some down years and is now on the rise again. I would recommend this book to any Notre Dame fan!
