The Rise: Kobe Bryant and the Pursuit of Immortality
by Mike Sielski
The Rise by Mike Sielski was such a well written book, especially if you are a basketball fan and. Kobe fan. I enjoy basketball, and I was interested in finding out more about Kobe Bryant, and I was not disappointed by this book. Mr. Sielski goes into great depth on how Kobe came to be, his drive as a young man and his talent. I admire not only his drive to be a great basketball player, but his drive to be a good student as well. However, the man Kobe came to be is off-putting and at times can make this book hard to take. This is not a detraction of the author, as his writing and research is impeccable. I speak more of Kobe the man. All in all, if you are a basketball fan, this will be a great, informative book for you.
