SALEM, Va. (PRWEB) July 12, 2012

The details of a [retiring football coach’s life are revealed in a series of vignettes told to his family during a pivotal football game in [Life” (published by AuthorHouse), the new book by [D.W. Sower that looks beyond touchdowns and field goals to reveal the humanity of the players and coaches who bring the sport to life.

Christopher has been playing and coaching football for decades, and the time has finally come for him to retire. It’s the day of his last game, and his family has gathered to do more than simply show their support: they want some answers about Christopher’s mysterious past.

Between tackles, plays and touchdowns, Christopher takes a trip down memory lane to satisfy the curiosity of his loved ones and shed some light on what his childhood was like. In doing so, he gives insight into his personal life and is able to show a softer side, a side his family didn’t know existed.

Simultaneously personal and relatable, “Life” pays a loving tribute to one man and the sport he loves in tales that are based on real-life events. Sower succeeds in showing that playing football is much more than just a two-hour-a-day commitment and that it affects more than just the players. He teaches lessons that extend far beyond the gridiron, and readers will learn how football can be a welcome respite from troubles at home or in school.
