Gunslinger: The Remarkable, Improbable, Iconic Life of Brett Favre

Â â€œOver two decades, Brett Favre was as compelling a figure as any in the National Football League. He alone was 'Must-See TV.' In Gunslinger, Jeff Pearlman provides an extraordinary look at every facet of the life of a man who performed on sport's grandest stage and who had one helluva time along the way.â€â€”Al Michaels
Â
In Gunslinger, Jeff Pearlman tells Brett Favreâ€™s story for the first time,Â charting his unparalleled journey from a rough rural childhood and lackluster high school football career to landing the last scholarship at Southern Mississippi, to a car accident that nearly took his life, and eventually to the NFL and Green Bay, where he restored the Packers to greatness and inspired a fan base as passionate as any in the game. Yet he struggled with demons: addiction, infidelity, the loss of his father, and a fraught, painfully prolonged exit from the game he loved, a game he couldnâ€™t bear to leave.
Â
GrittyÂ and revelatory, Gunslinger is a big sports biography of the highest order, a fascinating portrait of the man with the rocket arm whose life has been one of triumph, fame, tragedy, embarrassment, andâ€”ultimatelyâ€”redemption.
Â
â€œThe compelling, complete story of his legend, and his faults.â€â€”Chicago Tribune
