Excellent, outlining his father's life added a lot to the bo
While this book did speak about Pete's career a lot. The whole point of that was to show how empty it had left him and that only a personal relationship with jesus christ could fill the void in his life. Possessions will not make you happy. Only God can do that. This amazing story of a man's battle to find truth and happiness gets 5 stars from me.

HEARTBRAKING TALE OF PISTOL PETE'S LIFE
This book is the auto-biography of Pete Maravich, written less than a year before his untimely death. Although he eventually finds peace and salvation in Christianity...the bulk of the book centers on his star-crossed devotion to basketball. For those who dream of fame, this book details a brutal peek inside the world of professional sports. The very game that Pete loved so much betrayed him and brought on bitterness. This guy was in a lot of pain. "Heir To A Dream" presents the incredible bond Pete shared with his father, Press. It was amazingly spiritual and foreshadows Pete's religious re-birth. Although "heartbraking", End.

Heir To A Dream
This book showed a true life changing story about a great athlete and a man of Christ at the same time but was more for the more mature type reader i thought. But overall gave good amounts of information concerning the topics.
