Only the Strong Survive: The Odyssey of Allen Iverson

I got this as a graduation gift for my 17 year-old and he loved it. It helps that he's a HUGE AI fan.

its the best selling book about allen iverson out there. im a die hard iverson fan so just the fact that this book was written was a positive thing for me. tells the story of his struggle, and the struggle of his friends and associates growing up. he's had a hard past but still entertained millions with his talents. the guy is a legend. 'nuff said

I purchased this book for my grandson who is very much into basketball and the players. He has been very excited about the book and we will probably be looking for more soon.

Got this for my dad for christmas... he claims he read it, but I seriously doubt it... According to him "it was great" but he didnt give me any more details...

I think Iverson is one of the most strong hearted players who wills himself to be great- and still to this day want him back in the nba

Fantastic job, great product. The treatment to customers service make you wanted buy more from this guys. Thank you.

This book on Allen Iverson just came far too soon.Allen Iverson is my favorite current NBA player partially b/c he shakes up the status quo -- not necessarily because he wants to make that his objective, but quite poetically, he's doing it just by being true to who he is.This book is a tale about a kid from the wrong side of the tracks, that basically struck it rich but admirably remains "the same" as opposed to "assimilating" just to make his economic & financial counterparts feel comfortable around him.No true criticism of Larry Platt's writing style. If he wanted to go deep into Allen Iverson's undocumented youth and youth exploits, that's fine too.Bottom line is this book, while it has several defining moments, just isn't a compelling enough read because it was written still TOO SOON.A.I., love him or hate him, totally revolutionized the NBA and the image it projected to Middle America.I'd love to read a book about his life when he's 50, 60 or 85.I'm sure he'll be on "60 Minutes" doing a "My Life & times" segment.Whoever writes the book about his life just before that interview will surely have a No. #1 best-seller.

I can only say that i'm in love with the quality of the book and the customer service I received when I had questions.

Good product . Would order again from seller

Un bon aperçu de la vie et de la carrière d'Allen Iverson de sa jeunesse jusqu'à l'année 2002. Cette biographie montre des aspects personnels et peu connus du champion américain, notamment sur la mythique saison 2000/2001. À acheter si vous aimez The Answer, ou le basket NBA en général.
