Summary: What more could you want from a (auto)biography!
Comment: Great book about fencing. Mr.Westbrook definitely gained my respect and admiration. I first discovered his organization by accident. I saw him being discussed in the news about $100,000 grant he was receiving from Ms.Winfrey.

Since I had just become interested in fencing I decided to look him up. I discovered his book and was not disappointed. Reading the story of a fencing olympian was very exciting. Understanding his struggles definitely put some of my issues about fencing to rest, such as how far the salon is etc.

It's a very touching book with a lot of highs and lows. Great story to be read by any beginning fencer.

Summary: Biography of fencer, Peter Westbrook
Comment: The book was a page turner,finished in 3 hours. It tells the tale of peter shifting his energy into a sport instead of getting in to gang activities. It also speaks of the racism that Peter experienced avancing as a black fencer in a mostly white
sport. I especially enjoyed his adventures on the subway and
how he reacted in confrontational situations! A must read for
subway travelers!

Rating: 5
Summary: The pen and the sword cooperate.
Comment: Peter Westbrook is one of the true gentlemen of fencing. He is also one of the great competitive fencers of the twentieth century. Needless to say, his rise from tough "street kid" to Olympic medal winner makes interesting reading. This book is a definite must for all fencing enthusiasts, but it should also have appeal for anyone who likes personal stories of challenge and perseverance
