Book Review - Days of Grace

It is only fitting that we review Arthur Ashe's autobiography during the U.S. Open.

Days of Grace is a book by Arthur Ashe and Arnold Rampersad. Like so many others, Ashe touched my life, and he did it through this book. Sure, I knew about him, I knew about his struggles, accomplishments and impact on tennis. But, you can't have a full view of the way he conducted his life without reading his own thoughts. After all his tennis and humanitarian accomplishments, the man battles all sorts of terrible health issues, many brought on by human error. And he doesn't bat an eye. "Grace" is the perfect word. You simply aren't going to find a more inspirational book about life, much less tennis.

Enjoy and celebrate Arthur Ashe!
