Wherever I Wind Up: My Quest for Truth, Authenticity, and the Perfect Knuckleball

With a new epilogue by author R.A. Dickey, winner of the 2012 Cy Young award

"An astounding memoirâ€”haunting and touching, courageous and wise."â€”Jeremy Schaap, bestselling author, Emmy award-winning journalist, ESPN

In 1996, R.A. Dickey was the Texas Rangersâ€™ much-heralded No. 1 draft choice. Then, a routine physical revealed that his right elbow was missing its ulnar collateral ligament, and his lifelong dreamâ€”along with his $810,000 signing bonusâ€”was ripped away. Yet, despite twice being consigned to baseballâ€™s scrap heap, Dickey battled back. Sustained by his Christian faith, the love of his wife and children, and a relentless quest for self-awareness, Dickey is now the starting pitcher for the Toronoto Blue Jays (he was previously a star pitcher for the New York Mets) and one of the National Leagueâ€™s premier players, as well as the winner of the 2012 Cy Young award.

In Wherever I Wind Up, Dickey eloquently shares his quintessentially American tale of overcoming extraordinary odds to achieve a game, a career, and a life unlike any other.
