About this title

Review:

aAn equally compelling journey is Jim Nantzas "Always By My Side: A Fatheras Grace and a Sports Journey Unlike Any Other," Part autobiography, part reminiscence, "Always By My Side" was inspired by CBS commentator Nantzas 2007 broadcast triple play of calling three of sportsa grandest eventsathe Super Bowl, the Final Four and the Mastersain a 63-day period. The sweetness of that triumph was tempered by the fact that his father and namesake was succumbing to Alzheimeras and could not share or even know of his sonas success. But Nantz discovered a truth that resonated throughout his life: no matter what the circumstance, his father was aalways by his side.a Moving and easily readable, Nantzas story offers inside moments that will delight sports fans, while touching the heart of anyone who has watched a loved one slip into the deep fog of Alzheimeras.
