Blind Side -- by Michael Lewis
This is the tale about football but also about overcoming obstacles and an inspiring story of Michael Oher -- currently the left tackle at Ole Miss and likely future first-round NFL first-round draft pick. Michael Lewis is also the author of Moneyball, Liar's Poker, and the New New Thing -- he continues to be one of my favorite authors (my other two favorites are Malcolm Gladwell and Niall Ferguson).
I highly recommend this book.
