Tormey thanks all the readers who have offered reviews of the book and encourages readers and listeners to submit reviews for the print, Kindle and audio versions of the book.
This book, which has earned a rating of 4.5-stars (of 5) among Amazon readers, features exclusive content: the best of Coach Don James’ pregame speeches to his teams over his legendary 18-year University of Washington career. I was a three-year UW letterman linebacker for James (1976-1979). I was fortunate enough to be a part of James’ first team to advance to the Rose Bowl (1977-78); we beat the heavily favored Michigan Wolverines.
The 6-by-9-inch paperback and Kindle are available via Amazon.com. The book is also available at the University of Washington’s University Bookstore locations (Seattle, Bothell and Bellevue, Washington), and at Auntie’s Bookstore in Spokane, Washington. In addition, the book is available in epub, mobi, pdf, rtf, lrf, pdb, txt and html formats at Smashwords. Bookstores and book-sellers wishing to order the book should contact author Peter Tormey via email for special arrangements.
