Foxcatcher: The True Story of My Brother's Murder, John Du Pont's Madness, and the Quest for Olympic Gold by Mark Schultz
3.0
When I saw some of the reviews for this book, I was a little afraid.
However, I found that I quite enjoyed this book.
I will agree with one statement in some of the reviews I found. This is really the story of Mark Schultz and his life. It is more of an autobiography then anything else. Yes, Dave's murder is talked about in this book, but it isn't the entire story. We get to learn about what life was like for Mark Schultz.
I thought that Schultz was really fair and honest. I thought that this written word was written in the plain truth. He just told the story the way it was. You could tell from the way that Schultz talked about Dave that he was everything to him whether it was a brother, a teacher, a coach, or a parent. That was what really got me about this book. It was the way that Mark talked about his brother. It was obvious that the two brothers were really close with each other.
I really wanted to see the movie, and so in looking at the movie, I found the book. I thought that it was really good and I quite enjoyed the book. I thought that Mark Schultz did a great job telling the story and I really loved two things. Those things were his honesty and the way that he talked about his brother. If you are interested or intrigued by the story of Mark and Dave Schultz, I suggest you give this book a try.
